Palette
Work at a temperature not lower than +5°C.
1. Before use, shake the tinting paste thoroughly for 10–15 seconds.
2. To obtain a uniformly colored paint material, add the required portion of paste to a small amount of paint material and mix thoroughly, then add the resulting mixture to the rest of the paint material while stirring constantly and mix again until a mass of uniform color is obtained.
3. Universal tinting pastes are added to ready-to-use paint materials in an amount not exceeding 5% of the paint material mass, and to base paints (base C) — no more than 10%.
4. When tinting materials, it is necessary to make a test sample beforehand to approve 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 amount of paint material in full to avoid color variations.
6. Immediately after work, clean tools and containers with water. Color scales may differ in shades depending on the product to which the colorant is added (more details in Bergauf color charts).
Do not use for compositions based on natural oils and waxes.
Do not use as an independent coloring agent.
Store the paste in a tightly closed container, 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.
The guaranteed shelf life is 36 months from the date of manufacture in the manufacturer's unopened container. Pastes are allowed to be transported in the manufacturer's packaging by all types of transport under conditions that exclude the influence of atmospheric factors (covered vans, wagons, etc.) at temperatures from -50 to +50°C.
Withstand 5 freezing cycles. In case of freezing, thaw the product at room temperature and mix thoroughly until a homogeneous mass is obtained. After thawing, it fully retains its properties.
