HOW TO USE-

Adding colour to a white paint is not difficult. Mixing it in isn’t too hard either. The important bit is doing the job accurately and recording the quantities used. After all, once you’ve used up that first 10 litres of tinted paint, you’ll want to get the same shade for the next batch! Let’s say you want a pale shade and decide to be cautious and go for a 0.05% to start with, using a 10 litre bucket of white emulsion. Remember, you can always add more colour in later! 0.05% is 5 millilitres or gm into 10 litres.

You could use the supplied syringe like this: Carefully and slowly draw up the Liquid Colourant, avoiding bubbles, then expel the excess to give 5 ml exactly, and wipe any droplets off the tip. You should then transfer a few hundred millilitres of the white paint to straight-sided clean plastic container and add the Liquid Colourant.(It’s easier to do this than adding the Liquid Colourant directly to the 10 litres). Mix in thoroughly with a palette knife (a flat-bladed steel kitchen palette knife is ideal). Then transfer this coloured paint to the rest of the white paint, scraping the sides well to ensure all the colour goes in. Then use the palette knife or preferably a drill with a mixer attachment and keep mixing until there are absolutely no streaks and the colour is uniform. Be sure to scape around the edges and base of the bucket.

You can also pre-dilute some of the Liquid Colourant to make measurements easier. If you only had 2.5 litres of white paint to tint at 0.05%, that’s only 1.25 ml of colour, which difficult to dispense accurately using a syringe. It would be best to take 20 ml (or gm) Liquid Colourant and add to 180 g water (use a digital kitchen scale), mix well and use 12.5 ml of this to tint your 2.5 litres white paint. (The small amount of water that’s added to the paint won’t matter, and you can keep the unused diluted Liquid Colourant for a while to use later). Just note that kitchen scales may only be accurate to +/- 1 gm, so try to ensure you are weighting out reasonable quantities each time to keep the ‘error’ to a minimum.
