Embellishing and simplifying acrylic paint... When the magic of technique operates

Floetrol and Aussie-Trol

From the ease of gliding, to the multiplication of decorative possibilities to the work of an artist, when the characteristics of a paint determine all its uses! Sometimes all it takes is a detail to transform laborious and tedious work with unequal results into a simplified action with immediate benefits!

Water phase - details: Not all paints have the same quality and when working with water phase paint, you can find yourself faced with various difficulties.

• The texture can be sticky, difficult to apply, with an often reduced open time complicating its application.
• The tension is also dependent on the viscosity and can generate a result with unsightly imperfections.

Working on viscosity, during water-based painting work, is one of the factors that immediately improves application and rendering and increases the possibilities of results (false finishing, wiped effect, etc.).

Durieu with its Owatrol range puts its know-how at the service of innovation and offers two products whose formulations turn the painting work of professionals, individuals and artists upside down!

FLOETROL thanks to its ultra-technical composition lightens and facilitates all applications in aqueous phase and AUSSIE-TROL with a formula dedicated to pouring artists, allows to obtain spectacular results.

Floetrol: an additive dedicated to acrylic paints: essential! Why ?

• It adjusts the viscosity of the paint and facilitates its application, especially in dry, hot or windy weather.
• It increases the open time by delaying the setting of the paints, and thus limits the traces of rework. Dapple effects are largely limited thanks to a better tautness: it is the ideal partner for ceilings.
• It provides excellent glide with very good brushability which guarantees a more even film and therefore a very good finish.
• It simplifies work with the spray gun because the projection is more regular and the quality of the finish is better: the FLOETROL lubricates the nozzle and helps prevent unsightly irregular spray.

Most : Infinite decoration: Thanks to the fluidity obtained and the excellent glide, all the possible decorative effects, from faux finishing to the wiped effect and even industrial street art! Detailed work and uneven surfaces (rechampi type or molding frame, etc.) are also facilitated and improved.

Aussie-Trol: partner of pouring artists!

Pouring is this technique which makes it possible to create, with acrylic paint and special additives, beautiful artistic works on canvas by creating superimposed multicolored decorations.

The principle is based on the fact that the colors do not mix with each other but diffuse by overlapping to give an effect of multicolored cells and create the dynamics of the painting.

To obtain these cellular effects it is necessary to use an additive which allows each color to keep its identity without mixing with the others. AUSSIE-TROL offers a unique solution to increase the cellular effect and create an extremely original unique decor.

How? Just add it to each color with a ratio of 1 part paint to 4 parts AUSSIE-TROL (recommended ratio) and then apply the pouring technique to create your work!
