Lefranc & Bourgeois Flashe Acrylic Paints 125ml

FLASHE is a pioneering vinyl-based paint that is characterized by its matt properties and its intense covering power on a wide variety of supports. It enables the artist to paint on any painting surface, with a strong paint film that maintains the power of the colours. Because FLASHE is made with a different resin than acrylic paints, it produces different results. It is much more than a matt acrylic paint – it unleashes the intensity of the pigments and the luminosity of the colours with a matt finish.

APPLICATION
FLASHE can be applied with any type of brush without being diluted. A semi-responsive brush is recommended. It can also be applied with a sponge brush, a flexible spatula or, for effects, with a paint-spray gun, or even with an airbrush, diluting as desired.

BACKGROUND PREPARATION
Pure or diluted with water, FLASHE makes it possible to create vibrant backgrounds.

WATERCOLOUR
Dilute with between 1/3 and 2/3 water as desired, to create washes and patinas.

VARNISH
Matt varnish can be applied over FLASHE paints, to maintain the vibrancy of the colour without altering the shade. Gloss varnish will make shades a tone deeper and more vivid. Recommended for all outside applications.

CLEANING APPLICATORS
Use water for wet paint and warm water with alcohol for dried paint.
