Vitrea 160 are ready to use colours. Liquid, in bottle, paste in tube or in felt tip markers, Vitrea 160 colours display the same characteristics and properties : used together, you are completely free to experiment with the effects and techniques. The glossy or frosted appearance of the colours provides an infinite variety of light and shadow. After baking, colours are exceptionally intense and glass seems to be body dyed.

 

To fluidify colours, use the Vitrea 160 thinner. Gloss and frosted medium are used to lighten the colours without changing their technical characteristics ; iridescent medium, when mixed with colours, produces iridescent colours. To obtain a crackle finish, first apply the crackling medium phase 1, followed by the phase 2 and then paint over with colour.

 

Before painting with Vitrea 160, simply degrease with alcohol or soapy water. Allow to air dry for 24 hours, then bake in an ordinary domestic oven. Place the decorated object in a cold oven. Once the temperature has reached 160°C (325°F), allow to bake for 40 minutes. After baking, colours are dishwasher safe and resistant to detergents and common solvents.

Pure squirrel brushes or brushes in a mixture of squirrel and synthetic fibres are recommended. You can also choose brushes available in a wide variety of shapes.
