For a more subtle wash, add more water. For a more dense effect use less water.
**Slowly add EcoPaste to the water while stirring to avoid clumps.
Typically applied by brush in a random way. A large color wash brush (brosse a badigeon) is recommended for large areas. While EcoPaste is still wet on EcoPlaster, the plaster can be compressed with a stainless steel trowel for a tighter and harder finish.
For detail work on plaster, use clear EcoPaste as a medium with a palette of dry pigments.
Once mixed in water, EcoPaste has a pot life of one day. Dry EcoPaste can be stored and kept for as long as needed. Once you mix a dry batch of EcoPaste ,(dry EcoPaste + pigment), mix only the amount you can complete in a day with water, and keep the rest dry. EcoPaste and Natural Earth Pigments can be used on concrete overlays or other porous surfaces that need additional translucent layers of color. |
