Use For:
Get creative and apply over wax crayons as a wash, ink drawings, brush painting, colouring, paper mache, finger painting or mix with cellulose paste for screen printing.
Use on paper, wood, fabric, and filters for hours of endless fun. Paint with eye droppers, spray bottles or even just a brush to create unique colourful designs and unforgettable artworks.
Once dry the dye remains non permanent and water soluble. Wash up equipment with soap and water. Smocks and table coverings are recommended when using powdered paint; not fully washable from skin, clothing and other surfaces.
Tips on making up colours:
- Simply just add water.
- Mixing in warm water may give the best results.
- Each jar has 30g of dye. 30g make up 3 litres of an intense powerful bright colour.
- If more water is added, it will dilute the colour strength.
- Some colours appear in the jar to look less than other colours - this because they are heavier bigger particles, but they are the same colour strength and will still make up 3 litres of colourful dye.
