Egg Glaze

Color Rare's Egg Glaze is a 100% natural alternative to synthetic varnishes and clear coatings. It offers a light protective coat and can be mixed with pigments to offer unique decorative effects. May also be utilized as a binder for art.

Comes in powder form. Simply mix with water. Semi-transparent. For Interior Use only.

 

APPLICATION:

-Apply on dry, clean and dust-free surfaces.

-Apply only on interior surfaces of natural paints or coatings. Do not apply on synthetic paints.

-Apply in very thin layers using a spalter brush (flat and fine brush). Stretch the product (do not “overload” the brush) in order to avoid whitish traces. Wipe the glaze with a soft cloth if required.

-Use a maximum 15% pigment volume.  It is best to pass the first coat with very little pigment and adjust the dosage for subsequent layers.

-Appropriate temperatures for application, between 7°C and 27°C (45°F and 80°F).

-Brushes and tools can be cleaned with soap and water.

 

DRYING TIMES:

-Between 3 and 12 hours depending on the room’s temperature and humidity level.

-The look/definitive coverage is obtained only after the glaze is completely dried. Respect stipulated drying times; it is imperative to have a fully dry surface before applying the next coat.

-The slight odor due to the natural ingredients disappears once drying is complete.

 

INGREDIENTS: Milk, egg, borax, calcium carbonates, methylcellulose, arabic gum.

 

DILUTION: Use approximately 100g of powder glaze for 1 litre of water. Mix with a whip until mixture is homogeneous. Let stand 15 to 20 minutes before application. Use less water for higher concentration.

 

COVERAGE: 100 to 150 sft (10 -15 m²) per litre depending on the surface's porosity and the dilution of the glaze.
