Acrylic chalk - Bormawachs

It is a combination of traditional plaster with an acrylic polymer, added with a white pigment and additives, which guarantee its flexibility, excellent sandability and long life.
It can be used as a sealant, for preparing canvases for painting, or as a primer for the correct application of gold leaf. The acrylic plaster can be colored.

Procedure:

  • Ready to use for brush applications, it is preferable to dilute with water (maximum 15 - 20%) for spray applications. If applied as a base for the application of gold leaf, it is recommended to dye the plaster red-orange, to imitate the color of the red bole and enrich the final appearance of the gold leaf. For silver leaf it is preferable to use a dark or black color.
  • Apply two or three coats of plaster, preferably waiting each time for the plaster to dry, with times that will vary depending on the thickness and weather conditions.
  • Before applying the gold leaf, sand carefully to obtain a smooth surface. Start with coarse sandpaper (150-180) and continue with increasingly finer grit (350 - 600 - 1200), taking care to proceed each time in a direction crossing the previous one.
  • Once the surface is smooth and free of defects apply the mission and then the gold/silver leaf.

I ordered several wooden boards to paint icons. Upon delivery, half of them showed scratches on the surface to be painted or saw marks on the side. The wooden boards are made without the care necessary for the production of works of art. Dal Molin has not had any hearing for my request for replacement of the unusable art supply nor for a refund saying that "these details have no importance". I do not recommend this business.

A company that is worth a visit for the wonderful and wide range of basic materials from shaped wooden boards, chalked, tools and colors: everything you need to create icons or pyrographic works. They have wonderful painted icons, books and also organize courses on the subject. Courteous, competent staff, generous with information and suggestions. Worth a visit.

The solid lime wood boards, purchased by me online from the well-stocked Dal Molin Carpentry, to carry out carving work, have an excellent quality/price ratio and are available in a vast number of formats... The packaging of the products sent was also very careful and received with very punctual delivery. Compliments!
