Food colouring in PVA???

[Fatarm]

Older thread but I`d been thinking of this over the years and never got round to it.

Remembered it when I was in Morrissons the other day so yellow food dye became "toxic waste PVA" over artex!

Wee coat of bonding earlier on today and I`ll skim it next wk

I tried this with chaulk line.
It bleeded through the paint.
So warning if you do this

try putting the chaulk from a chaulk line in mate, i use to use red that would turn the pva pink and you can see exactly where you have and haven't been.
good when preping a white ceiling

What a really good idea you never stop learning

Warning!
I have tried the chalk line in the pva trick. I have some observations.....

Firstly it f**k*d up a perfectly good chalk line......never the same after

Secondly, the string from the chalk line got ever so tangled around the roller.....it was a proper messy bitch to untangle......no saving on time there.

I now add a drop of white emulsion....works great!

Usually if the heating is on in the house....its sets quicker.
No one living in there no heating on takes longer.

I like using smoked paprika in PVA. Makes it a lovely colour and the smell makes it a pleasure to use.
If I'm out of paprika I use Tabasco sauce. Just don't let it get in your eyes!

Nesquick works just as well [emoji106]

 

[phippsy333]

whys he pva before scrape? scrape create key then pva surely ? Also if you put too much food colouring in PVA it WILL bleed thru second coat, then you will have to blocker paint it to stop bleed thru.

 

[Natwasere]

Could just get yours eyes tested, saves faffing with colouring that could bleed through?
