Guides
On thinning, mixing shades and working with pigments.
What are powder paints and why work with them?
You receive the pigment dry and decide its concentration, use and intensity yourself — that control is the whole point.
How to mix powder pigment correctly
Mixing is simple, but the method decides how the colour turns out. Wet the pigment well and work slowly.
Transparent or opaque? Controlling how a pigment behaves
The same colour can be a soft translucent layer or a bold opaque surface. Concentration and application decide.
Mixing your own shades from powder paints
Two pigments and a changing ratio give you an almost endless range of your own colours.
Why pigment lightfastness matters
A colour is not only its shade but also how it behaves over time under light.
