Description
This is a paint made of titanium dioxide, which is a pigment that is used to create a variety of colors. Titanium dioxide is a fast drying pigment, meaning that it will dry quickly and will not leave any water spots on the surface that it is painted on. It is also opaque, meaning that it will block out light and will create a dark color. Titanium dioxide is also a very lightfast pigment, meaning that it will not change color over time. Finally, titanium dioxide has a low oil content, meaning that it will not create any unwanted shine when painted on surfaces.
Unbleached Titanium Dioxide
PW6.1. Fast Drying. Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. Low Oil Content.
Before Titanium Dioxide is refined to make it white it contains a measure of Iron Oxide, which gives it a subtle linen or limewash pinky-brown shade. As well as making it a good drier, such a presence makes this paint an ideal ground or underpainting colour, with good texture and a lean surface. Some painters use it as a mixing agent in flesh painting.
