CREASED GEL is a colorless finish base, ready to be tinted with pigment color of your choice. It's easy to use to create wall finishes, renovate old furniture ("white ceruse" effect), apply to white-painted shutters, stain wood beams for a French ceiling, etc. For both interior and exterior use.

Adding pigment to Creased Gel

  1. Place pigment powder (Ocher, Oxides, etc.) in a bowl and add a little water. Mix well to obtain a homogeneous liquid in which all the pigment has been wetted.
  2. Add the pigment/water mixture to the creased gel - mixing very well. Depending on the selected color you will add 20 to 300 grams per five liter bucket of creased gel, or up to 60 grams per liter.
Your Creased Gel is now ready to use. Apply the gel on a base primer of white, water-based paint. Certain Acrylic paints will also be compatible.

The decorative effect will be differ depending on the application tool used: rag, sponge, plastic bag, painting flannel, brush, paint roller or cork.

Coverage for an interior wall:
