OUR RESI-BLAST, THE CELL AND STRUCTURE MEDIUM That's it. With resi-BLAST you can create unique cells, structures and color gradients on your artwork. The tension between resi-BLAST and resin creates incredible effects on your art. It can. Resi-BLAST can be used in many different ways. The advantage is that resi-BLAST does not connect to the resin, but displaces it.

Resi-BLAST is specially designed for use with resin. Displacing the resin can create different cells depending on the amount. There are no limits to your imagination when it comes to Colours. Particularities. With resi-BLAST you can create special effects in your resin art. The effects appear immediately after the drops and you can follow the process of the cells live. In addition, the cells can be subsequently edited and changed. The effects are not only visible but can also be felt haptically. Measuring, mixing and processing resi-BLAST Mix with resin 1.) Resin and hardener of MASTERCAST 1-2-1 are mixed by volume 1:1. Place the two components in a suitable mixing cup. 2.) Stir the measured amount in the mixing cup. Use a plastic spatula for this. Stir slowly and thoroughly for 3-5 minutes; also on the bottom and edges of the mixing cup. 3.) Your mix is ??ready and you now have 25-30 minutes to process the resin. Now you can color the resin and add resi-BLAST. 4.) After you have dropped the resi-BLAST into your color mixture, you will immediately see that something has changed in the mixing cup. 5.) You have prepared your painting surface beforehand, which means: it is dusted, degreased and lying flat on your work surface. Now pour the color mixture with resi-BLAST onto the painting surface. 6.) You can influence the resulting effects by blow-drying the cells with a heat gun. To do this, you have to try to enlarge or change the cells in circular movements over your cells. Dripping on the artwork 1.) Resin and hardener of MASTERCAST 1-2-1 are mixed by volume 1:1. Place the two components in a suitable mixing cup. 2.) Stir the measured amount in the mixing cup. Use a plastic spatula for this. Stir slowly and thoroughly for 3-5 minutes; also on the bottom and edges of the mixing cup. 3.) Your mix is ??ready and you now have 25-30 minutes to process the resin. After that it becomes too thick and begins to harden. 4.) You have prepared your painting surface beforehand, which means: it has been dusted off, degreased and is lying flat on your work surface. Now pour your color mixture onto the painting ground. 5.) In order to achieve the most spectacular results possible, you should apply at least two different colors to your painting surface. 6.) Drop the resi-BLAST on one color only to create a monochrome effect. The point in time at which you apply the resi-BLAST is also important. The ideal time is about 5 minutes after casting, as the resin then offers the right consistency. The wrong time will cause an oily layer to form on your resin surface. 7.) You can influence the resulting effects by blow-drying the cells with a heat gun. To do this, you have to try to enlarge or change the cells in circular movements over your cells.

THE OPTIMAL LIME SWAT FOR ARTISTIC APPLICATIONS That's him. Pure white and very fine - that is what distinguishes the Etter Art swamp lime. And that is why it is particularly suitable for use in art. In general, the following applies to swamp lime: the older, the better the quality. This is because lime and water react slowly with each other - it takes some time for the crystal structures in the lime to become finer and finer. The Etter Art swamp lime was swamped (soaked) for 72 months. The result? Radiant white and a particularly fine structure. Ideal for artists. Measuring, mixing and processing the Etter Art swamp lime 1.) Mix the Etter Art swamp lime in a ratio of 1:1 with marble flour powder until you get a homogeneous consistency reminiscent of cream quark. A hand mixer, for example, is suitable for mixing. In this case, the marble flour powder serves as a binder. 2.) If the mass is a bit too viscous, simply add a little of the water from the bucket with the lime putty (lime sinter water). 3.) Apply the resulting structure paste to the painting surface. The image idea is decisive for the type of application: Regular or irregular towering, flatter or higher, large areas or as accents. 4.) Then let the lime putty dry. The drying time depends on the layer thickness and the ambient temperature. 5.) During the drying time, fine cracks appear in the applied paste. The thinner the application, the more cracks appear. Conversely, a thicker application results in fewer cracks on an area of ??the same size. 6.) In order to fix the swamp lime structures on the painting ground, they must be secured after drying, for example with acrylic emulsion. 7.) After removing the lime putty from the bucket, top up with water if necessary so that there is always a layer of water covering the lime (lime sinter water). In this way, the product retains its properties and high Quality.

It can also be colored, there are different ways of using it and it is wonderfully suited for working with Resin. Measuring, mixing and processing resi-CRETE For a concrete-like surface 1.) Put the resi-CRETE powder in a suitable mixing cup. 2.) Add a small amount of acrylic emulsion. Use a plastic spatula for this. Stir slowly and carefully; for 3-5 minutes; also on the bottom and edges of the mixing cup. 3.) Your mixture must reach a pasty consistency. To do this, you can continue to add acrylic emulsion while stirring constantly. Make sure you get a smooth mixture with no lumps. 4.) The right consistency has been reached when the mixture of resi-CRETE and acrylic emulsion no longer flows. 5.) The less acrylic emulsion you add, the firmer your structure paste will be. It can be applied and designed three-dimensionally. 6.) Your mixture is ready and you now have 25-30 minutes to process the resi-CRETE. Then the hardening process begins. 7.) You have prepared your painting surface beforehand, which means: it has been dusted off, degreased and is lying flat on your work surface. Now apply the mixture to your painting Surface.

The right consistency is reached when the mixture of resi-CRETE and acrylic emulsion stops flowing and has reached a solid state. 5.) Apply the mass a little thicker to your surface and briefly heat it up with a hair dryer or let your work of art dry in the sun. These processes increase cracking. 6.) Your mixture is ready and you now have 25-30 minutes to process the resi-CRETE. Then the hardening process begins. 7.) You have prepared your painting surface beforehand, which means: it has been dusted off, degreased and is lying flat on your work surface. Now apply the mixture to your painting Surface. For putty based on resin 1.) Resin and hardener of MASTERCAST 1-2-1 are mixed by volume 1:1. Place the two components in a suitable mixing cup. (TOTALCAST and ULTRACAST XT are also suitable.) 2.) Add resi-CRETE and stir the measured amount in the mixing cup. Use a plastic spatula for this. Stir slowly and carefully; for 3-5 minutes; also on the bottom and edges of the mixing cup. 3.) The mixing ratio should be 40 grams of resi-CRETE to 100 ml of resin. 4.) Your mixture is ready and you now have 25-30 minutes to process the resi-CRETE. Then the hardening process begins. 5.) You have prepared your painting surface beforehand, which means: it is dusted, degreased and lying flat on your work surface. Now apply the mixture to your painting Surface.
