Palette
Work at a temperature not lower than +5°C.
1. Shake the colorant paste thoroughly for 10−15 seconds before use.
2. To obtain a uniformly colored paint material, add the required portion of paste to a small amount of the paint material and mix thoroughly, then introduce the resulting mixture into the rest of the paint material while stirring constantly and mix again until a color-homogeneous mass is obtained.
3. Universal colorant pastes are introduced into ready-to-use paint materials in an amount not exceeding 5% of the paint material weight, and into base paints (Base C) — no more than 10%.
4. When tinting materials, it is necessary to perform a test application beforehand to confirm the color. The shade of the tinted material may vary depending on the quality and type of material used.
5. When painting a large surface area, it is necessary to tint the entire required volume of paint material at once to avoid shade differences.
6. Clean tools and containers with water immediately after work. Color scales may differ in shades depending on the product to which the colorant is added (more details in Bergauf color cards).
Do not use for formulations based on natural oils and waxes.
Do not use as a standalone coating.
Store the paste in tightly closed containers, in a dry room away from heating appliances and direct sunlight, at a temperature not lower than +5°C in a place inaccessible to children.
