Wax Finish Varnish A unique brushable coating which offers a new concept in decorative finishing, combining the silky feel and appearance of traditional beeswax with the heat and water resistance of a varnish.

Glass Frosting Varnish An acrylic medium developed to reproduce the unique visual effect of etched glass. Stencils and masking tape can used to transform plain glass panels into classic designs. This product adheres fantastically to difficult surfaces such as projection screens, Perspex etc and can also be used as a primer either neat or tinted with colour.

Craquelure A two-part water-based acrylic system which faithfully reproduces the regular crazed pattern of old porcelain glaze. The cracks can be accentuated by using the highlighter.

Crackle Glaze A non-yellowing acrylic medium which produces consistent cracking of emulsion paint to create two-colour ageing and dramatic effects. Apply a base coat of emulsion paint [the colour of the cracks] and allow to dry. Then apply a smooth coat of Crackle Glaze brushing in one direction only. Allow to dry. Then apply the top coat of emulsion paint [thinned 10%] brushing at right angles to the glaze using a loaded brush in one pass only. Cracks will appear in the top coat revealing the base colour, the thicker the top coat, the larger the cracks.

Acrylic Scumble A clear water-based, non-yellowing, transparent glaze which produces a translucent, waxy finish and can be applied over acrylic eggshell paints and vinyl silk emulsion.

Colourisers Concentrated colour-fast, non-toxic pigments for colouring or tinting scumbles, varnishes, lacquer etc.
