Fleur Designer's Primer - Verdigris (330 ml): Fleur Designer's Primer - Verdigris (330 ml)
R968 R878 Discovery Miles 8 780 Save R90 (9%) Ships in 7 - 17 working days

A primer for Fleur Designer’s Paint Verdigris effect. Use for a singular coat with a brush or roller. For absorbent surfaces, dilute with 20% water. With non absorbent surfaces sand the surface beforehand to improve adhesion.

Fleur Designer’s Paint Verdigris contains tiny copper particles that oxidize when you apply the specific Reagent. Verdigris is the common name for a green pigment obtained through the application of acetic acid to copper plates or the natural patina formed when copper, brass or bronze is weathered and exposed to air or seawater over a period of time.

The result of these products is a real verdigris coating, which can be more or less homogeneous according to the type of application (roller, brush, sea sponge, etc.). Once you have reached the desired effect, the application of the Anti-oxidant Finish protects the Verdigris and stops the oxidation process.

Fleur Designer’s Paint Verdigris products are professional, water based, easy to use and perfect for obtaining real verdigris coatings on all surfaces such as wood, metal, plastic, glass, etc.

Bob Ross Acrylic Primer - Black (100 ml): Bob Ross Acrylic Primer - Black (100 ml)
R336 Discovery Miles 3 360 Ships in 7 - 17 working days

Liquid Acrylic Primer (Black) is one of three Bob Ross Liquid Basecoats essential to the Bob Ross Wet-on-Wet Technique. Each basecoat allows artists to actually blend and mix colours right on the canvas rather than working on the palette. The Liquid White can also be used to thin other colours for application over thicker paints. The idea that a thin paint will stick to a thick paint is the basis for this entire technique.

Bob Ross colours are an excellent choice for artists who are painting in the same style as Joy of Painting host Bob Ross. This range of Bob Ross artists’ materials has been exclusively designed to create beautiful oil paintings using the successful wet-on-wet techniques made popular by the late leading TV artist Bob Ross.

Bob Ross products are part of a unique system that help even complete beginners to create realistic landscapes, animals or flowers in oil within a few hours. The system uses a special, slow-drying primer ideal for wet in wet techniques, special brushes and painting knives, and a comprehensive range of instruction manuals and videos.

Pouches are the green way to buy your Jackson's Acrylic Primer. Purchasing a primer in a pouch means less wasteful packaging that can harm the environment. These light bags are also great for easy lifting and pouring. The clear packaging tells you instantly how much primer you have left.

Space saving bags such as these, are excellent for both transportation and storage. The ability to squeeze the air out of your primer pouch for storage between uses, reduces the dried up edges that can crumble in and contaminate the rest of your gesso. Imagine no more dried up lumps in your primer!

    On some of these surfaces it is recommended a basecoat of the Polyurethane Primer (62.601) for best results. Premium colours are flexible and exceptionally durable and permit prolonged exposure to weather without fading or losing their brilliance.

    Premium colours have been formulated with micronized, permanent pigments and an extremely resistant, exterior grade hybrid resin-polyurethane base, which withstands impacts, resists chipping and cracking, as well as direct exposure to heat and outdoor elements without cracking or fading, and is fuel residue proof up to a least 35% Nitro.

    AV Premium colours have superior flow, they are self-levelling and brush on with exceptional ease. For
    airbrushing, the colours can be used directly from the bottle when using a nozzle size 0,3. For the metallic colours some dilution might be necessary, and for smaller nozzles (O.2mm or less) the use of the Reducer (62.068) may be required. The recommended compressor setting is 30-60psi (2-4 bar).

    The range consists of 20 bright opaque colours, 23 dazzling metallics and fluorescents, and 9 shimmering transparent Candy Colours. All colours are as suitable for detail work as for covering large surfaces and can be applied by brush as well as by airbrush.

    The range is complete with 8 auxiliary products including the Transparent Basecoat and the Reducer, Primer, Varnishes and Drying Retarder. For an automotive refinishing and as an extra protective final coating, we recommend a catalyzed urethane clear varnish (spray can or airbrush).
