Flexible Membrane | Flame Retardants | Scenic Paints | Studio Supplies | Prices |

The attributes that we considered necessary to produce scenery paints are:

1. Colour Range:
The need for a comprehensive range of colours which are aligned with the scene designers range of artists tube colours to aid the colour matching to designs.

2. Colour Quality:
Colours must be manufactured from good quality pigment so as to ensure clean, vibrant colours. Even secondary and intermediate colours, where critical, should be produced from pure pigments and not from intermixing colours.

The colours are consistent with the artists pallette. The paint can be applied by brush, roller or spray gun to fabric and to built pieces. As the paint is manufactured from pure pigment,, the colour is clean and vibrant.


Above:
Examples of what can be achieved with our specialised Scene Paint.




Flexible Membrane

Fexible Membrane Is a versatile, thick, waterbased interior and exterior flexible and waterproof coating.

Used where 'high build' thickness is essential, it is designed for applying texture to fabrics, bonding theatre net to cut cloths, applying to cut fabric to prevent fraying and to coat foam animated sculpture. Build applications to give desired thickness.

Membrane can be tinted to any colour as required.
