Marbling paint in a choice of 9 brilliant colours, Jacquard Marbling Colors can be used for marble decoration on most porous and semi-porous surfaces. These marbling colours are effective on natural and synthetic materials including wood, leather, fabrics, canvas, paper and much more. Use with Jacquard Synthetic Gall to make colours spread further, or to make one colour dominate other colours.
The marbling colours are permanent and wash fast on fabric after heat setting with an iron.
Fabrics and paper should be treated with a solution of Alum prior to using marbling paints as this will help the colours to transfer more clearly. Dissolve 10g of Alum in 4 litres of warm water. Sponge or spray the Alum solution onto paper and allow to dry before marbling. Fabrics need to be fully wetted in the Alum solution, wrung out and allowed to dry without rinsing. The dried fabric can be safely ironed to ensure a wrinkle free surface for the marbling paint.
