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.

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!

I don't practice iconography, but I try my hand at chip carving. I searched high and low online looking for basswood boards to pursue my hobby, and I bought several from different suppliers. I've always spent a lot on cheap boards. One day I ended up, by chance, on the Dal Molin Carpentry website and a world opened up to me. Boards of all sizes, and even particular shapes... I ordered some to try and I have to say: FINALLY! Finally some high quality boards, well finished and at fair prices. I immediately added the site to my favorites, from which I plan to order often :) A thousand thanks!
