About this product:

• Adding Synthetic Gall to Jacquard Marbling Colors increases how much a color will spread on the marbling size;
• Add it to the paint to make one color dominate over the others or to increase the coverage on the marbling surface;
• Gall can add a whole other dimension to marbling and gives you much more control over the behavior of the paints;
• Jacquard’s Synthetic Gall may also be used with other acrylic paints for marbling or increasing flow.

Instructions

• Gall should not be added directly to any of the paint bottles, as you cannot decrease the amount a color spreads once the gall is added;
• Add gall to marbling paint one drop at a time in a secondary jar or palette until the color spreads as desired;
• Gall may also be used to create voids in the design;
• The gall is powerful – do not add it directly to the surface of the size, as it will cause a sizable hole to appear in your design;
• Instead, dilute the gall by putting 1 or 2 drops into 1 teaspoon/5 ml of water (adjust concentration to your preference);
• Then you can add it to your marble to push the colors into tight veins or create little clear voids in the design;
• Flicking the diluted gall from a brush causes a honeycomb-like effect.
