- During the past years, Lead white paint has become very expensive and increasingly harder to find. RGH Paints is an artist-owned company that invited us to visit their warehouse and offered us a rare look at the manufacture of this historical paint used by generations of artists from the Renaissance to the present.

#leadwhite #how oil paint is made #oilpaint - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I've been using RGH Cremnitz white for years. It has been an outstanding paint in term of price and quality. And the guys at RGH bend over backwards to help. If you haven't used their paint, give it a try now.
Ok. I'll give them a try.
This is incredibly interesting to see a real behind-the-scene quality artist paint manufacturing shop in action. It's clearly evident how open, honest, and dedicated Rolf is. I really respect his goal of never allowing his oil paints to become too oily. We all have experience with trying cheaper brands, and the linseed oil just comes pouring out of the tube. One thing I find particularly fascinating is how the best most honest experienced workers (such as Rolf) speak in just a humble, straightforward, and down-to-earth manner. I say this because it is not easy to achieve top quality when working with real materials in the real world. The same is true in all walks of life. Some sell the sizzle, not the steak. Rolf sells the steak. Thank you Luis, for taking the time to create and post this useful video.
We painted a fence bright frog green color over 50 years ago in South Bend, Indiana (4 season chemtrailed USA state). As all paints back then it was oil based lead paint when u had to use turpentine to thin n wash brushes. Today, the painted fence still looks like it was just painted !!! Incredible beyond imagination !! It was made by Sherwin Williams !!
3/25/2022 USA Grandpa Bill: Luis, thank you for this. I'm a late-comer to all this, having some large old tubes of lead whites from estate sales that were sold by several of our well-known sellers in 20 or so years past. Several of the tubes are full. One or two leaked oil at the bottom of the tube so I wrapped them in aluminum foil. I thought of selling them and then I got interested in them and their processes. I bought a very smooth 18'x24" lead white primed canvas from a company in Texas. It smelled so bad I had to air it out for six months in my garage woodshop. When I opened the box it almost knocked me out. Whew! Now it is in the house, and I intend it for a portrait when I'm good enough. I admire your excellence and openness to us on TH-cam, Thank you.
I have a full collection of RGH paints! I can’t recommend them highly enough! Excellent products! Great customer service. But RGH and enjoy your adventures in art!
I am not affiliated with this company. I just love the paint!!
May I ask which vehicle you chose and why? (linseed oil, walnut oil…etc)
@@deniseracine6788 i use linseed oil. And i use both a copal concentrate and marogers mediums. I find that something special happens with bot those mediums when used with flake whites. I would describe it as increasing elasticity. Its a longer paint that maintains some textural qualities. Hard to describe. Try it. You’ll see!
Fascinating! What a wonderful business! Thank you for sharing this with us Luis!
Amazing! What a beauty of production workshop! 👌
This is a pleasure to watch, also very good prices
Gracias por tanto Luis!
Very cool! I've been buying from rgh for years
I used to get lead white from David Davis for years--he made his own. I still have a quart but I'm getting mine from this guy next time.
Tell Rolph I said hey!! He's a super good guy and makes awesome oil paint, so good to see him finally other than talking on the phone.♥️🖌️
Que valioso video y grande labor y es bueno saber que todavia hay elaboracion de material pictorico tradicional gracias por el contenido 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
felicidades maestro Borrero es una gran aportacion a los que tenemos la inquietud de seguir ese hermoso arte de fabricar pinturas muchas gracias
Interesante documental de la fabricación de pinturas de óleo. Es una pena que estos fabricantes y sus productos no lleguen a España y si se venden son carísimos, no acto para el bolsillo de pobres pintores artísticos. Ya son extremadamente caros los productos que se venden de firmas europeas que tengan una calidad obtima, contra más del otro lado del Oceano. Un saludo desde España.
Vine del canal de César Córdova, estoy fascinada con todo el conocimiento que ha compartido allí, sin duda usted es un gran maestro. Ya me suscribí a su canal. Saludos desde México!
Saludos T De: Gracias por suscribirte a mi canal. 🙏🏻
I love RGH paints! They really are professional quality, but the prices are very reasonable- especially if you buy the larger containers. I do that and generally re-tube them myself. As for aluminum stearate (I make my own paints as well) some colors will result in a consistency like sticky cookie dough or stringy bubblegum with no stabilizer added. It takes very little A.S. to alleviate it. PY43, for example, is one I never got in a usable form until adding a small amount of aluminum stearate ("small" meaningless than 10% of total volume of the pigment).
Cries in European
amazing
Great video.! How do you clean up the lead and keep lead soaked rags and paper towels, etc., out of the trash, which would go into landfills? I’d be interesting in trying lead, but I want to do it responsibly. Maybe you could make a video on responsible cleanup? Thanks again!
¿Será posible saber si hacen envíos a otra países?( más específico México).
Gracias y felicitaciones por el contenido del canal.
Increíble. Muchas gracias por compartir. Esperaría un montón de medidas de bioseguridad seguridad para la preparación de este material. Pero parece que con el extractor sobre el mezclador y los guantes esta bastante bien.
Personalmente me gustaría encontrar una explicación mas amplia sobre la diferencia entre mezclar y dispersar el pigmento, si bien se intuye el concepto. Lo mismo que con la adición del "aluminun stares"
Muchas gracias por compartir tu contenido. Espectacular todo. 👍👍👍
Hi Luis, I would be curious to hear you speak with Robert Doak or for you to share your thoughts on his paints
...wow looks like ice cream🍦😛
¡Gracias por el aporte! Yo espero algún día poder hacer mi propio banco de plomo, para cuando pueda hacerlo con todas las medidas de seguridad pertinentes. Por ahora uso los últimos tubos de blanco de plomo que compré a Winsor & Newton hace ya varios años.
No sabiaq el plomo se usara como pintura pensé lo usaban cosas industriales o para envenenar xd
Winsor & newton ya hace varios años que no hace lead white pw1. Si compraste flake white hue. No tiene nada de blanco de plomo y si tiene blanco de zinc pw4 que no es bueno para la durabilidad de las pinturas.
@@comunidadbitcoin2050 hola. No, efectivamente tengo blanco de plomo genuino, Pw1. No sé en qué año lo fabricaron pero tengo esos tubos desde hace unos 8 años y los adquirí a través de una tienda que vendía por Amazon. Y curiosamente en las tiendas Panamericana de Bogotá, al menls hasta hace un año o menos aún se conseguía blanco de plomo en tubos de 37 ml.
Hi, Luis. Thank you for this. I guess the highest virtues of lead white are its warmth and transparency. I was wondering if adding chalk (bianco di Spagna) to titanium white would result in a more transparent white as well. I saw you using chalk to increase transparency of colors.
Perhaps adding Barite (barium sulphate) could help?
What configuration most closely resembles your stack lead white?
I went to RGH's site. Really looks fantastic. I did have a question. It looks like they have many "Lead Whites". Can anyone give a recommendation of which would be a standard or basic lead white?
Pw1
I use his "paste" version most of the time.
Hola Luis, en unos días viajo a Madrid. Sabes donde podre conseguir Lead White? Gracias!
El blanco de plomo actualmente no se vende en la Unión Europea. La mejor opción es comprarlo a través de RGH paints. Cremnitz white con Cold pressed linseed oil 👉🏻rghartistoilpaint.com/blacks-and-whites.php
Hi Luis. I have an old painting by one of the artists and I want to document it, and then sell it, knowing that there is an unprofessional person who has tampered with it and abused the painting and then someone put a substance with the intention of examining it and made it worse. Can you help me in this matter? I want to contact one of the experts in fonts and graphics.
I'd have myself tested for lead poisoning after visiting this workshop; all that lead pigment flying around, and no protection in sight!
Hello Japhy: Thank you for commenting. If you notice in the video there is a vacuum system right next to the mixer not the triple roll mill. This system is used when the pigment is being incorporated with the oil. Additionally you could see plenty of masks around in the workshop. I use a similar system in my own set up. The most dangerous phase of making paint is precisely when the dry pigment is being mixed with the oil.
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist😊
I wonder how do they manage to clean those rollers between colours.
I may be really easy to clean actually. Just making the rollers spin and clean them all with a rag or something.
Saw dust!
Is Rolf from England? His accent sounds a bit English.
But no info on how he actually makes the paint... Leadsheets and how to make the different types of Lead Whites..
Wouldn't wax act better than Alluminium Searate?
You rang?
@@waxwax8781 🤣
What do you suggest for painters in Europe where lead white is not available unless you are a licensed conservator?
Hello Miss Magic: I was told by Rolf that RGH paints will ship their paints all over the world.
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist They probably won't get through customs unfortunately.
You can buy lead white from Kremer pigments (based in Germany) if you send them a proof that you are an artist registred in an association of artists. So not only art restorer. They have a PDF form you have to fill in next to this type of product information.Take care, use all required safety measures.
@@bodeaalex1142 I will enquire with them as to what they need, thanks. Still I would be interested in comparisons with non-lead products for both safety and costs (in Europe but not an EU country).
You can get lead white in Europe all over the place (online). I bought Holbein (poppy oil) from Petersart in Germany; Williamsburg (safflower oil) from Schleiper in Belgium; Blockx (poppy oil) in Belgium; and Old Holland (raw linseed oil) from several web shops in the Netherlands like van Beek Art Supplies. If you need specifics (addresses etc.) let me know in a reply.
Edit: You don't need to prove you're a restorer to buy from any of the above-mentioned sources (not even Petersart in Germany).
I have a 5 lb container of Dutch Boy White Lead if anybody wants it
Don’t you have trouble with lead exposure?
Hello Anneka: I am very careful with my materials. I exercise caution at all times when using lead pigments. I use professional respirators and gloves when handling toxic pigments.
@@LuisBorreroVisualArtist what other toxic pigments do you use?
Hace crean pinturas xd
Maestro, no olvide a su alumnado de youtube, por favor. Nos agrada recibir todos sus conocimientos, y no lo digo con deseos de presionarlo, ni nada como eso, pero se le echa de menos muchísimo cuando publica una vez al mes. Considere esto como una muestra de profunda admiración y respeto hacia su trabajo, tanto, que no nos satisface las espaciadas actualizaciones. ¡Espero que esté muy bien! Gracias por tanto.
OK I need lead in my paint to protect from the 5g death rays... can you make lead based paint so i can protect myself please??
The real reason they banned lead paint
Aluminium stearate!? No thanks, I’ll stick to Rublev.
Why?
@@camilopalomino8319 it’s not recommended by MITRA.
Ban lead white.
Ban leftists and 'climate change' lunatics.
