AUTUMN PALETTE Colour Pigments for Jesmonite®

•       Use only with Jesmonite® AC100, AC300, AC730, other plaster & gypsum-based eco-resins, cement and concrete. NOT for epoxy resin.

•       The colour in the bottle is very concentrated. Your cast piece will be lighter, because the powder is white.

•       Each batch is hand-blended, so tiny variations are possible. Screens also show colour differently.

•       Any colour chips shown in photographs are samples made using pigment from the bottle.

•       Store above 5°C and keep lids tightly closed.

1. Shake the bottle well for at least 30 seconds. The blended colours separate and settle when not in use.
2. Add the pigment to the LIQUID first and stir well, then add the powder. Never add pigment to the powder or straight into the mould.
3. Start small and build up drop by drop: you can't go backwards. Use a toothpick for pastels.
4. Use no more than 2% pigment by weight of your total mix (20g per 1kg).
5. Mix the tinted liquid and powder together very well to avoid white specks.
6. Do not use in Epoxy Resin – you need alcohol pigments for that!

MARBLE, OMBRÉ & TERRAZZO

•       Marble or ombré: swirl a few droplets through the top of your final mix or pre-mix smaller amounts of different shades and pour them into the mould in layers or together to form a random effect.

•       Terrazzo: make coloured chips, let them set, then add them to a fresh mix.

HOW TO SEAL YOUR PIECES

•       Protect your indoor Jesmonite® or plaster & gypsum-based pieces with my Finishing Touch 100% Natural Coconut Oil & Soy Wax Sealer. 

•       It should make your final colour slightly more vivid and adds a lovely sheen.

•       It adds splash-proof protection but is NOT 100% waterproof or dishwasher safe.

•       Not for outdoor products or candle containers.

• Water-based and non-toxic with no significant hazards, but avoid contact with eyes and do not swallow.
• If accidental contact occurs, wash thoroughly.
• If swallowed, drink plenty of water.
• Avoid prolonged contact with skin. Gloves, eye
• protection and overalls are optional.
• Pigments stain, so cover your workspace, use a large enough mixing container and keep bottles closed when not in use.
