Cryla Hints and Tips Acrylics


Cryla Artists Acrylic Colour  at online discounts

Cryla Artists Heavy Body Acrylic colours are characterised by their thick buttery consistency, their uniform eggshell finish across all the colours in the range and their minimal colour shift from wet to dry in the development of Cryla.
Daler-Rowney took the industry standards ASTM D5098 set by the American Society for Testing and Materials as their yardstick - and improved on them at every stage of manufacture. The colours are made by dispersing the finest high loading pigments in a 100% acrylic co-polymer emulsion and will not yellow with age and offer a high degree of permanence and light fastness. These colours can be thinned with water, but when dry the resin particles coalesce to form a tough flexible film which is impervious to water.
Because the colours are water based they can safely be used by those sensitive to the powerful solvents used in oil painting.
Acrylics are the fist colours since >oils that are sufficiently flexible to be used on canvas.
Cryla Artists Heavy Body colours are designed to retain the intended stroke when applied with a knife or brush, so they are ideal for highly textured impasto painting techniques and readily mix with many mediums to create various effects.
Painting with oils over acrylics is not recommended , but oil over acrylic is considered good and safe practice.
Acrylics can be painted on many surfaces which should be oil and grease free and preferably treated with specially formulated acrylic primers or gel mediums. Drying time is approximately 5 minutes for a simple brush stoke at room temperature which enables over painting and is a great advantage to those who work quickly.
Colour samples should be used as a guide only, due to the differences in computer monitor displays.   Ref 3233

Daler-Rowney Pearlescent Tinting Medium gives a shimmering pearlescent metallic lustre when mixed with pure acrylic colour. On its own it dries to an attractive off-white pinkish pearliest colour. It works well on white surfaces as well as darker surfaces. Ideal for use with System 3, Cryla and acrylic colours. The medium is heavy bodied which when mixed with Cryla colour will retain the same consistency as the pure colour. Mixtures will result in paler transparent tints of the pure colour. It works particularly well with more transparent colours and is perfect for all forms of 2 and 3 dimensional decorative cards and craft work.

Daler-Rowney Flow Enhancer is a colourless liquid which can reduces viscosity and makes acrylic more fluid, which can be particularly useful when painting large areas requiring smooth coverage without >brush marks. Flow Enhancer is best added directly to colour in small quantities until the desired flow characteristics are achieved. Flow Enhancer reduces brush marks enabling acrylic colours to be applied in a 'hard edge' style. Useful additive when staining raw canvas. The flow properties help when airbrushing and avoids clogging as much.

Cryla Impasto Medium Matt, Daler Rowney, is a  white translucent heavy bodied gel which provides a cost effective means of covering large areas with impasto colour when mixed with pure acrylic colours it will dry to a matt eggshell finish. Ideal for use with System 3, Cryla and acrylic colours. Opacity is only marginally reduced with considerable additions of medium to colour. Drying times will be slowed down, but not significantly. The marks of brush and knife will be retained with gel mixed just as with pure colour, and the same heavy bodied buttery texture is preserved.

 

 

 
How do I remove wet acrylic colour from fabric (i.e. clothes)?
The colour can be removed from clothes when wet by padding the back of the fabric to avoid the colour spreading and rub with a cloth dampened with water. Follow by washing with soap and warm water. Some staining may nevertheless still occur because the pigment becomes entangled in the fibres of the cloth and cannot be physically removed. We find that some detergents fix pigment in to the fabric so bar soap and / or dry cleaning is preferred to machine washing. Our advice is to always use protective clothing/ aprons when using acrylic colours because of the difficulty in cleaning them from fabrics.
