Mixing Instructions

For liquid binders: Place desired amount of pigment in mixing vessel or on a palette. Add liquid slowly and work with palette knife or tool to create a smooth color paste or syrup. The liquid used may be either the binder itself or a compatible vehicle depending upon the chosen medium. To avoid flocculation, do not introduce pigments into a large volume of liquid all at once as this will cause micro clumping.

For dry binders such as plasters and cements: Pigment may be added into dry ingredients directly prior to mixing. If micro-bursting of particles appears in plasters, creating a color syrup may be necessary first.

Mixing tools: Artist mixing tools may include a palette with a palette knife, a mortar and pestle or a slab and muller. Which tool you use depends upon the amount mixed and the pigment’s need for mulling. Decorative binders may require the use of mechanical mixers to fully incorporate pigment.

Ratios: To be determined by individual binders and/or color result desired. Visit our How-To pages for in-depth recipes with suggested ratio's and detailed instructions.

What are Primaries?

All Artists and Decorators will find exciting colors to work with in the Primaries. With a wide selection, these will be modern colors as well as replacements for many toxic, traditional pigments. The Primaries Category is comprised of different pigment compositions. Most are composite colors that utilize a unique fusion of synthetics with 90 to 99% natural mineral ingredients. Like all of our pigments, they find use in many mediums. However, it is particularly important with these colors to check individual compatibility with your planned use. Some may have exceptions.
