Thank you for the mixing video, I just got my 1st pigments, and using Josonya is quite smelly as varnish can be. I couldn't paint in the house using it, living in AZ desert, it is too hot to work in the garage during the summer, so I am going to try the GAC 100, see if my housemates can tolerate the smell of the paint with that method. Thank you

Hi Tara, thank you for the new recipe. Please could you explain why you need the two different bases, Valspar and Behr Dynasty. Thanks. ❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹

@PiecesofTaraArtistry Ай бұрын

Sure SM! The Valspar is too thin on its own…it won’t hold up the cell structure. The Behr Dynasty is too thick on its own so you have to add something in to thin it down and most people use a varnish to do so. I don’t like using varnish because it always makes my cell activator melt my cells and they are not frost one clean looking…if that makes sense. So I found that when I combine the two base paints I don’t need to use varnish at all. Which for me is a win win. Hope that helps! 🙏🏻☺️❤️

Hello Tara, just wanted to thank you for this new recipe. I have one question for you can you please give me your 2 to 1 ratio for PM in grams for both pigments, tubes, and fluid paints. Thanking you in advance 😀😀

@PiecesofTaraArtistry Ай бұрын

Hello Yuvonne! Your welcome! Sooo…when you are measuring the pm it is basically 2 grams Valspar to 1 grams of Behr dynasty. If you want to make more you just scale up from there. As you saw in my video I did not weight my pigments or my tube paints. And as I don’t work in grams, I work in oz on my scale that is something you might have to figure out. I’m sorry I couldn’t be more help but I hope I am making sense. ☺️❤️🙏🏻

@PiecesofTaraArtistry 11 күн бұрын

@@bethalvarez6956 So if I were you I would stick to Sherwin Williams Color To Go to start with if you will be tinting it. Usually when you add color to a base paint it thins it down so it will be thinner than just a white. In that case I get my color to go and open it and leave the cap askew to let air in. The air will thicken it up. You should give it a stir every few hours. I would keep it open like that for at least 12 hours…stirring every 3 hours. You can leave it without stirring but it will create a film overtop that you will have to remove completely otherwise little bits will dry in your paint. You may want to master white before you move onto colors bases. That will help you determine if the consistency is right or not. ☺️
