LUSTRE 3EME FEU LIGHT BLUE 700 BLLU700

COBALT BLUE

DESCRIPTION:
LIGHT BLUE 700 is a third-fire liquid with a brilliant cobalt blue tint for brush and spray application on vitreous surfaces, such as ceramics and glass.


CHARACTERISTICS :
Viscosity: 0.02-0.04 Pas. 30ºC.
Consistency: medium viscosity liquid.
Shelf life: approximately one year at 20ºC.
Colour: cobalt blue (after firing).
Substrate: Tiles, porcelain and glass.
Application: Brush and spray.
Dilution: Not necessary for brush application. Recommended limit of approx. 5%. For spray application, up to 15% thinner can be added.
Firing temperature: Porcelain 750-820 ºC.
Glass 550-620 ºC


STORAGE :
Store in a dry place. Away from possible sources of ignition and/or sparks.


DIRECTIONS FOR USE :
Use with brush and spray gun. Wear safety gloves. Do not breathe any vapours. If dilution is necessary, use D23 thinner until the desired viscosity is reached. It is not recommended to dilute more than 15%. Apply by brush to the surface to be decorated and bake according to the substrate as indicated above.


General information:

Luster are inorganic solutions of metallic combinations that allow to obtain very bright decorations with iridescent effects on smooth substrates (glass, enamel, crystal...).

 The pigments are either precious metals or tinctorial oxides of certain metals; the solvents are mainly essential oils.

 A ready-to-use lustre preparation comes in the form of a perfectly clear solution which does not contain any undissolved pigments in suspension.

 Lustres can be used either directly or diluted, depending on the viscosity.

 Only oils and essences of the highest quality should be used as thinners.

 Chandeliers are applied by brush, spray, pad, direct printing or decal.

 Dust and moisture droplets are a hindrance to the application and firing of chandelier decorations, so it is very important that the decoration workshops are kept clean.

 In general, chandeliers are applied in the same way as liquid brilliant gold and, after firing, form an extremely thin layer of metal oxides which is partially melted on the surface of the glass or glazes to which it has been applied. It produces certain original effects that cannot be achieved by other means.
