KREUL Chalky glass and porcelain paint 20 ml, matt

Create soft matt colour blocks, dots or a painted band on a vase or the outside of a cup. KREUL Glass & Porcelain Chalky is a water-based, creamy opaque paint with a smooth chalk look. You receive one 20 ml jar in your chosen colour; brush and object are available separately.

Fourteen matt colours

Choose the matt Chalky finish for a quiet colour area; an opaque coat removes the see-through effect of clear glass. The fourteen colours range from light and warm shades to greens, blue and neutral earth tones. Judge your sample when dry, as wet sheen does not show the final matt effect.

Prepare the surface and paint

Choose a smooth, heat-resistant object. Hand-wash it before painting and remove grease and dirt. Apply the paint with a soft brush. Do not dilute with water; use KREUL Glass & Porcelain thinning medium 16273 if needed, available separately. Unfired paint can be removed from smooth surfaces with water; clean tools with water after use.

Compare brush marks and coverage

On the same suitable sample, paint a small area with smooth brush strokes and another with stippled marks. Use the same colour for both. Once dry, compare coverage, edges and brush texture, then cure the sample using the oven instructions. Record colour, surface and application method; next assess how the result looks after washing. This lets you choose your own method for the full design.

Oven curing

Allow the painting to dry for four hours. Put the object in a cold domestic oven. Once 160 °C is reached, cure for 90 minutes. Then allow it to cool and harden in the oven. Use this oven method only for objects that withstand the temperature; also follow the object’s own instructions.

Care and safe use

After correct oven curing, the painting is water-resistant and dishwasher-safe. Leave drinking rims, the insides of cups and any surfaces that contact food or drink unpainted. The paint is for decoration. Store protected from frost, heat and direct sunlight.
