Decola thinner for glass and ceramics acrylic paint 50 ml

Want more of the surface to show through the colour in a glass decoration? This Decola thinner makes acrylic paint for glass and ceramics less intense in colour and more transparent while retaining its consistency. The medium is based on a water-acrylic dispersion. You receive one 50 ml plastic jar with a screw lid.

Adjust transparency without adding white

Use the thinner to make a colour more subtle when painting glass or ceramics. It reduces colour intensity with a medium intended for this paint type. On clear glass, a trial lets you assess both how the colour looks on the surface and how much light passes through it. The suitable amount depends on the colour and the coverage you want.

Make a small mixing trial

1. Take a small, separate portion of Decola acrylic paint for glass and ceramics and stir the paint well.
2. Add the thinner gradually and mix carefully. This keeps the change from the original colour under your control.
3. Apply a trial to the same material as your decoration. Let it dry and compare it with an undiluted colour swatch before mixing a larger amount.

For these more transparent mixtures, use the matching thinner rather than water alone: diluting with water can reduce this paint system’s resistance to washing.

Finish your decoration

Follow the glass and ceramics paint’s directions for surface preparation, drying and fixing. This thinner is a paint additive, not a finishing varnish. Paint, brushes and a mixing palette are needed separately. Rinse painting tools with water immediately after use.

Safe use

Close the jar tightly and store it between 5 and 35 °C. Follow the label, avoid unnecessary skin and eye contact, and wash your hands after use. Keep it out of children’s reach. Do not use this decorative paint system on surfaces that come into contact with food.
