    Hi, question.
    In India at these wall exterior and interior paint shopkeepers they have this machine colourant. Like Asian paints machine colourant.. And they use it to make a paint with a different white base..
    I wanted to know can I use those machine colourant to make some watercolors. Watercolors have powder color pigment, gumarabic, distilled water, glycerin , honey and clove oil..
    In that colourant it looks like liquid pigment. I wonder what is it made. What to mix with it to make watercolors. Could you please share or suggest some tricks to work around it..

    How much color do you add to that? Do you need preservative or anything else? I want to make fountain ink any thought into that kind of paint?

    Hi, I'm requesting a translation of a small hieroglyphic text from two beautiful images belonging to queen Ahmose Nefertari , but unfortunately TH-cam is deleting the URLs here. Do you have an email to send the address of the images?

    Can you give the amount of gum arabic with the hot water, please?

      It depends on testing, water to gum --> 2:1

      Thank you for the speedy reply😀Ihave to admit I bought the powder and have a couple of disaster getting the correct consistency. It seems to me, the egg up of water need a lot of gum. Anyway, I've mixed the 2/1 ratio and I will leave it to stand for a couple of hours to see if the consistency thicks up.
