Purple Color CPM 99

Technical Specifications Ceramic color for majolica, Areas of Use: Artistic-Industrial, Firing Temperature: 920°-940°C, Form: Powder, Color: Purple. CAUTION: Before using the product on a large scale, perform tests. Use To use the products supplied in powder form, simply dissolve them in water and let the suspension stand for 24 hours. This allows the various particles to wet their entire surface and allows any air bubbles to escape, ensuring that the clay absorbs enough water to perform its function. When using the colors for the first time, we recommend sieving them through a sieve with at least 1296 mesh/cm², a process that should be repeated after each subsequent use. The density of the liquid color will be proportional to the concentration of the powder and depends on the specific gravity of the color itself. It is difficult to establish fixed dilution rules, as this depends on the application method (brushstroke or spray), the porosity of the substrate, the desired thickness, and the working speed. Generally, the application density is determined with a hydrometer, which will allow you to restore the color to the correct density each time you want to use it. This represents the traditional line of overglaze colors used to decorate directly on the enamel. They are produced with a fine grain using a manufacturing process that makes them naturally suitable for brush application. You can customize your colors by mixing the shades together, even dry, and add them to enamels and lead crystallines to obtain original pigmentations. PREPARATION - APPLICATION - FIRING: Mix with water, sift, and apply with a brush, sponge, or pad. Airbrush application for professional use only. Firing temperature: 920°-980°C. Some colors may be slightly more refractory than others due to their natural chemical composition, which makes them slightly less glossy when applied with buildup, when decorated on poorly fusible glazes, or at particularly low temperatures. Some colors, such as Ramina Green, can create a metallic surface effect if applied too thickly. Excessively increasing the firing temperature increases the fusibility of the colors and may tend to sink slightly into the glaze. To better understand the behavior of the colors, it is recommended to occasionally use cones and rings in the kiln to check the actual operating temperature.
