SO NOW EVERYONE*
ON THE PLANET CAN USE
THE BLACKEST BLACK
I created a new resin that holds more pigment than other acrylic, capable of trapping much more light.
I developed a pigment (Black Magick) that is totally matte. (Normally black pigments are slightly shiny)
I have added a variety of brand new transparent mattifiers to flatten out stray light.
- Absorbs up to 99% of visible light
- Apply with a brush or a spray
- Works with most surfaces (wood, paper, canvas, plastic, metal, plaster etc…)
- Thins with water
- Lightfast and archival
- No need for cooking, vacuum chambers, or weapons-grade scientists
- Smells like fresh coffee
- Not available to Kapoor
Key things to remember:
- Use a nice soft brush (not a rubbish scratchy comblike one)
- Apply at room temperature 10 - 25 c ( 50 - 77 F)
- Use as little paint as possible and spread it out nicely
- Allow to dry between coats (at least two hours, overnight is better)
- Use a hairdryer to get max blackness
- Seal absorbent (porous) things with 25% PVA and 75% Water
- Prime shiny (non - absorbent) things with primer or Black 2.0
