There are times when you might want a solid black for a specific effect, but on the whole I prefer to mix blacks for livelier color. Neutral tube colors, such as Lamp Black and Ivory Black, seem very dull, especially next to high intensity hues in a painting. It's important to use the colors in the mixture throughout the picture for the sake of harmony. One mixture that makes especially rich, transparent darks and blacks is Alizarin Crimson and Phthalo or Winsor Green.

Ans: Complete instructions are included with every order. The ceramics are a very fine powder and blend into paint quite easily with a simple stirring using a paint paddle. The addition of ceramics to your paint will thicken it slightly and you may have to add a little water ( up to 1 pint ) to bring the paint back to a useable consistency. We recommend thinning with our Acriflow, the latex paint reducer/enhancer that turns any paint into a "Super Paint". See similar questions...

You may mix any of our urethane clears into the final coat of an ULTRA-GLO acrylic urethane paint job. Doing so is a quick and easy way to improve the gloss and long-term durability of the paint finish, without having to apply a full clearcoat. It should be noted that this is not as effective as applying a full clear coat. Kirker’s ULTRA-GLO acrylic urethane paint is completely compatible with all of our urethane clear products, so they will work together in any mix ratio. See similar questions...

The Victorians, and people generally up until the 1930s, used to paint black around the edges of the rooms and place a rug in the middle. This was the fashion of the day. We can usually sand 99% of this out of the floor. If the whole floor is painted black, an extra charge is made to cover the extra work. See similar questions...

This is a question that is dependent on what other uses you'll have for the piece. Black tourmaline is usually stronger (more powerful) and it would be our first preference when we need grounding. If you are looking to work with manifestations or healing too, smoky quartz would be our choice. Smoky quartz is a good all around grounding crystal. Many believe it brings you to a lower vibration, but this is not the case. It grounds you in such away that you can spread your wings. See similar questions...

This depends on the siding and the look you are trying to achieve. For most homes, using a 100% acrylic (latex) paint will provide the longest lasting finish. 100% acrylics tolerate more movement in the wood and retain their color much longer than an oil based paint. See similar questions...

Yes. Eurolux House Paint is suitable for all wood exterior surfaces. Many clients, however, prefer to use Hollandlac or Eco Brilliant Enamel on doors and shutters.

You can, however, paint with oil paint over an acrylic painting. See similar questions...
