Casein Paint Set

KREIDEZEIT Casein Paint is a matte, quick-drying paint with good opacity for woodturning projects.

When using the product, the complete Product information must be observed.

Preparing the substrate
If necessary, rub down resin-rich woods with KREIDEZEIT Balsamic Turpentine Oil or Orange Peel Oil. Roughly sand the wood first, then soak (moisten with warm water, e.g. with a sponge) and sand finely after drying. Remove dust thoroughly after sanding.

Primer
Nor required.

Mixing the paint
Stir 75 g powder into 110 ml clean, cold water until the mixture is lump-free. Leave to stand for at least 30 minutes and stir well again before use.

TIP: As very little colour is usually needed for woodturning, a measuring spoon or tablespoon can also be used as a measure. Simply pour a measuring spoon of water into a container and stir in a level measuring spoon of powder with a stirring stick..

Dilution
The paint must be adjusted with water to a spreadability that is suitable for the substrate; it may need to be diluted further for this purpose. Casein paint can also be used as a semi-covering/ glazing coat.

Application
Processing temperature at least 8 °C. Stir occasionally during application. Two coats may be required for full opacity.
Apply thinly and evenly. Too thick a coat can lead to paint damage. Allow previous coats to dry out completely before recoating.

The mixed paint must be used within 1-2 days. Do not use paint that smells bad or foul under any circumstances: Danger of long-lasting odour problems even after drying!

Tinting
The 5 different colours can be mixed together in any ratio.

Drying times at normal climate
Can be painted over after approx. 2-4 hours. This can be accelerated with a hair dryer.

Cleaning the tools
Immediately after use with water and Corfu Soap (Art. 5102).
