Processing & tips
Dosage & mixing
→Acrylic resin: usually 0.5 to 5 percent color paste by total weight for saturated shades
→Plaster: add pigments drop by drop or in powder form to the mixing water for an even color
→Mixing technique: mix gently to minimize air inclusions, work cleanly, and weigh consistently
Effects & finishing
→Metal effect: mix iron or aluminium powder into the mass, sand lightly after hardening and patinate if desired
→Surface finish: prime with black for better coverage, then apply gilding wax sparingly and polish.
Always check the product TDS and SDS for exact dosages, pot life, and safety instructions.
Compatibility & considerations
Acrylic resin (A1)
Water-based system, compatible with A1 color pastes and many inorganic powders. Too much pigment can affect strength and curing.
Plaster
Dyes can affect processing time. Start with a low dose and build up to the desired intensity.
Primers & wax
Apply primer to a dry, dust-free surface. Let the primer dry before applying gilding wax .
Sealers
For stain resistance and color retention, a sealer or topcoat may be desirable.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much color paste do I add to acrylic resin?
Start with 0.5 to 1 percent by weight and gradually increase to a maximum of approximately 5 percent. Too much pigment can affect strength and curing. Check the TDS.
Can I colour porcelain plaster all the way through?
Yes, mix pigment into the mixing water for an even base shade. Work cleanly and weigh accurately for reproducible results.
How do I create a realistic metallic effect in acrylic resin?
Mix iron or aluminum powder into the mass, sand lightly after curing and apply a patina or sealer if desired.
Does color affect curing time?
High pigment loading can affect curing and viscosity. Always test a small batch and monitor the total dissolved solids content.
Why prime black before applying gilding wax ?
A dark background increases contrast and accentuates metallic highlights, making the effect appear deeper and richer.
