Rosco Supersaturated Paints are often used direct from the pot for maximum obliteration, but they are really designed to be diluted at least 1:1 with water.
They can be further diluted up to 15:1 to provide water colour washes and dye effects. This also has the benefit of reducing the VOC content of the finished product, but If you are heavily diluting the paint don’t forget you are also weakening the binder so we advise that Rosco Neutral Base is added to reinforce the binding power. Indeed Neutral Base can be added to Rosco Supersaturated to paint items such as brass door furniture where most paints would fail to adhere.
When used to paint cloths, Rosco Supersaturated has the advantage over other paints in that it remains supple allowing the cloth to be rolled or folded without cracking. It is this flexibility that makes Rosco Supersaturated the preferred choice of virtually every major theatre paint shop. The paint can be easily flame retarded by the addition of Rosco Flamex PA
Once diluted 1:1 the paint will cover approximately 8 – 10 m2 per litre making it very good value.
