Pigment Application Products
Pigments need to be bound to become a paint. For this they are mixed with a binder. The binders' functions are to lock the pigment particles into a protective film, act as an adhesive by attaching the colours to the ground and to create an optical effect by bringing out the depth and tone of the pigment.
Langridge has developed a range of Paint Binders to allow artists to easily and effeciently master the preparation of their own colours. They include stabilisers and preservatives for maximum durability and performance.
