GypsoLite is a long 'working time' compound with PearLite that gives a natural fine earthy texture for quick and easy blending of rock castings and large terrain coverage. Mix to any consistency: THICK for sculpting terrain contours. MEDIUM for adhering rock castings and blending. THIN for brush applications for added 'gritty' textures.
FOR GYPSOLITE APPLICATION: ALWAYS USE THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE:
Measure 1 cup cold water into a flexible plastic container. Add coloring, (powder tint or watercolor) if used. Mix thoroughly.- A retarder** may be added if needed.
Slowly add in 2 cups of GypsoLite. Add additional GypsoLite powder to make thicker. Stir until smooth. Apply with pallet knife or brush.
Please allow a complete cure time of 24 hours before painting. **Use 1 tsp of vinegar... use no more than that. It will never harden.
