MIXING
POWDER PAINT
To achieve a smooth lump free paint, the paint should first be mixed with a little cold water. Ensure the paste is smooth before adding warm water and add further water as thickening occurs to bring to desired consistency. Allow to stand for 15 minutes to allow paint to thicken before use. Can easily be thinned with water to reach desired consistency.
We recommend that you further dilute with water when preparing paint for pre-school children.
