![]() ![]() These came closer to the raw clay color, though some could use even more. I compensated for color shifting by adding white or yellow. Circles in lower left are packaged raw clay. Circles in upper right are raw clay mixed with white or yellow as indicated. The rest of the colors remained quite true.ĬOMPENSATING FOR COLOR SHIFTING I added a little white to ultramarine and purple before I started. It’s hard to tell with purple and ultramarine because they start out so dark. There’s also a plain translucent (as opposed to translucent white) which is a bit darker yet.Ĭolors that darkened noticeably when baked:Ĭolors that darkened a little when baked: See How to Avoid Plaquing in Polymer Clay. The more you bake it, the darker it gets. ![]() Translucent white Premo starts out yellow and gets darker when baked. See Baking Polymer Clay Without Yellowing or Cracking for my attempts to get Premo to not break by baking at higher temperatures. It can yellow or brown when baked at higher temperatures. White Premo stays nice and white, even when baked multiple times, though it does break. WHITE & TRANSLUCENT Squares are baked clay. The primaries of fuchsia, zinc yellow and turquoise mix quite well to make secondary colors, as shown in the top row of the photo above. They weren’t mixed half and half because some colors are stronger than others. In the top and bottom rows, I mixed colors that were visually halfway between the packaged colors in the second row. In the photo above, mixtures are indicated by lines drawn between colors. I’ve found it’s possible to leach Premo too much, to the point where it no longer sticks together. If I were working with Premo, I’d leach all the colors. I had difficulty getting the raw clay swatches to keep their shape, remain flat and not stick to things. Premo offers many other colors including metallic, glitter, fluorescent and stone.Īll of these swatches were baked at the manufacturer’s recommended temperature in two aluminum baking tins, one inverted as a lid with two small ceramic tiles inside.Īll of the colors were soft and sticky. The ultramarine and purple are really dark, but turn into recognizable colors when enough white is added. They offer a lighter purple, but it has mica powder in it. I’ve found that the colors in the photo above, plus black and white, should be all that are needed to mix any color. ![]() To learn more about how and for what purposes Amazon uses personal information (such as Amazon Store order history), please visit our Privacy Notice.Squares are baked clay.
