Pelikan Plaka - Brown

A casein-based emulsion paint that is incredibly popular amongst gilders, particularly those who gild frames, for use as a base for gilding. Plaka adheres to most porous surfaces (though we recommend using it only on rigid surface) and it's colour range includes several shades that mimic traditional clay colours. The paint has excellent covering power and lightfastness and dries to a smooth, water-resistant, non-fading satin surface that can be lightly sanded and serves as a good base for oil gilding.
