Unlike Milk Paint, Real Milk Paint ® Pigment Powders do not contain binding agents; these powders are pigment only and are mainly composed of iron oxides and earth colors. All colors are lime proof. As such, they may be mixed with any suitable binding agent as desired by the user, or try our Real Milk Paint ® Base. For example, pigment powders can be mixed with and used to color concrete, plaster, plastic resins, wood putties, and epoxy. They can also be used for applications such as tinting wood fillers, shading pore filler pastes, or for touch-up on furniture. Try them any place you'd like to add a little color!

Before application to entire project, be sure to test on sample first.

Coloring Concrete
Here are some general guidelines although each pigment will have a different opacity ratio. So you may need less of Red than you do of Yellow Ochre.

  • Light pastel shades will require 1 to 3 pounds of pigment per 94 pounds of Portland cement
  • Medium pastels will require 4 to 5 pounds of pigment per 94 pounds of Portland cement
  • Darker shades will require 7 to 9 pounds of pigments per 94 pounds of Portland cement
  • Never use more than 10 pounds per 94 pound Portland mix.

Milk Paint Base

Milk Paint Base is the binder we make for our Real Milk Paint ®. When mixed with water, this base is somewhat translucent before pigment is added. Instructions are included to give guidance on making paint when mixed with the pigments.
