Rosco Supersaturated Paints provides the versatility of dry pigment with the permanence, ease of use and flexibility of acrylics. The paint can be used direct from the pot for maximum obliteration, but they are really designed to be diluted at least 1:1 with water. They can be further diluted up to 15:1 to provide watercolour washes and dye effects. If you are heavily diluting the paint but want to use it on a difficult surface we advise that Rosco Neutral Base is added to reinforce the binding power. Indeed Neutral Base can be added to Rosco Supersaturated to paint items such as brass door furniture where most paints would fail to adhere. When used to paint cloths, Rosco Supersaturated has the advantage over other paints in that it remains supple allowing the cloth to be rolled or folded without cracking. It is this flexibility that makes Rosco Supersaturated the preferred choice of virtually every major theatre paint shop. The paint can be easily flameproofed by the addition of Rosco Flamex PA.
Once diluted 1:1 the paint will cover approximately 8-10 square metres per litre making it very good value.
