Crementz
Because I have serious concerns about the use of lead paint, I use titanium white instead because it is opaque and covers so well. I figured that my Liquin medium overrides the "fat" in the bottom layers problem.
I used to use Permalba white all the time because it paints so well, but because it is a 50%-50% mixture of titanium and zinc, it does not cover as well as straight titanium white.
I only know three kinds of white paint....lead, titanium and zinc....with different mixtures and grades thereof. I have never tried Crementz white....what is it made of?
Maybe we should start a new post on the subject of white oil paint?
