Description

MIXOL® Multi-Purpose Tinting Paste

Not a ready-made paint – but a binder-free, highly concentrated tinting paste for universal use.

✔️ Key Features:

Binder-Free & Versatile: MIXOL® is a universal tinting paste for a wide range of applications.
Extremely Concentrated: Only a minimal amount is needed to achieve vibrant results.
Temperature Resistant: Stands up to frost and heat. If frozen, simply thaw at room temperature and shake thoroughly.
Long Shelf Life: Does not dry out or form lumps when properly sealed.

🖌 Usage & Mixing Guidelines:

Shake well before use. Always seal tightly after use to prevent drying or clumping.
Add MIXOL® first, then the thinner if required.
Always perform a rub test to ensure proper mixing and compatibility:
- Brush on a sample.
- Rub immediately with your finger.
- If it darkens, stir again thoroughly and retest.

🔧 Recommended Dosages (by weight):

➡️ Refer to the MIXOL® colour chart for specific mixing percentages.

⚠️ Important Compatibility Notes:

Only use MIXOL® oxide tints (red cap) in:
- Varnishes low in or free from aromatic compounds
- Silicate/silicone resin paints
Non-oxide tints (no red cap) are unsuitable for:
- Solvent-based latex emulsions
- Polyester resins
- 1- and 2-component synthetic resin paints

If hand-mixing fails, a mechanical stirrer is recommended to prevent “rub-out” effects and ensure even distribution.

🎨 Interior vs. Exterior Use:

Indoor Only Colors: No. 6, 7, 10, 18
Outdoor Alternatives:
- Use No. 26 (True Yellow), No. 27 (True Red), or No. 30 (Oxide Brilliant Yellow) instead of No. 7 (Canary Yellow) and No. 10 (Red).

🪵 Special Effects:

For indoor pickling or liming effects (e.g. on raw wood), try:

White No. 25 – a multipurpose concentrate perfect for adding to colorless coatings and transparent finishes.

🧠 Pro Tip:

Mixing 1 bottle (20 ml) of MIXOL® into 1 liter of white paint can result in the following concentrations:

8% for 375 ml paint
4% for 750 ml paint
1.6% for 2.5 L paint
…and so on.
(Note: Results vary depending on the titanium dioxide content of the base paint.)

🌦 LW vs. L Types:

LW / LW Oxide Types: Lightfast and weatherproof – ideal for indoor and outdoor use
L Types: For indoor use only
