    NOTE: If you can’t find these brands or are in a different country the components you want are an untinted base house paint (base c or d, base 3 or 4 whichever is lowest, deep base or ultra deep base or neutral base) plus a water based polyurethane gloss varnish to make up your Pouring Medium. If you want to try a more traditional pouring medium base because you can’t get certain components, TOTALLY go for it and give it a try 😃 it’s YOUR Art after all! 💜

      Aww thank you so much Scott, I really appreciate that! 🤗 Some of the untinted bases I use are clearer so the colors look more vivid, this video was one of them as I was using the Behr 8300. Another one I like to use that I just discovered recently is the Valspar high gloss with the regular Varathane varnish, the colors are just as vivid. 🤗

You might be able to make a mint!! I just watched an presentation on Shelee's Facebook page by Debra Dunn. She said the Infiniti is so much thinner that she uses the triple thick instead of the Jo Sonja. Is that your experience? I'm sure you've said, but I've watched too many videos and my brain is in a puddle!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! for all of your testing and SHARING! your results with all of us "out here"! I am SO HAPPY about your video I watched yesterday using Amsterdam SS in Titanium White and Oxide Black using American Floetrol with higher ratios! I was blown away! ... IDK if anyone has commented about your "starry effect" in this video ... and I'm definitely no "pro" by any means! ... but I also watch Karen @ Waterfall Acrylics and when she has this happen ... she says it's because someone had already had that particular can SHAKEN UP and then it was placed back on the shelf! I'm pretty sure it's the pillow paint that causes this? (Because they don't shake the deep base before adding whatever color you're buying!) ... If I can find a video where this happened to her ... I will "try" to send it your way !!! Again, thanks so much for all your testing! and SHARING !!! 🤩🤩🤩 ...

      Hi Kay! I’ve been right here where’ve you been 😉💜 haha! Just kidding, I’m so glad you found me 🤗. Yea this starry can was just a bad can, it actually wasn’t the pillow because I used the same pillow on another test with a different can of that base and no starry effect whatsoever. You’re right though having bubbles like that can be from them shaking it and putting it on the shelf. I did have that happen to a pillow paint once I had to let it sit for a few weeks before I could attempt to use it but had to get another can lol the nerve of them haha! It happens though 🤗

I feel like it’s a mix between the cold and also the lack of humidity. 62 is a bit cold, when mine gets to about 68 I bring a space heater in which doesn’t help the humidity ha! But luckily winter is only a few months.

    This color combination is stunning. Thanks for sharing your experiments.
    I don’t know if this would help with the quart infinity pillow but what if you torched it for a few seconds in case there were tiny hidden bubbles. I saw someone do this. Not long enough to create a skin. This is a pure guess. I just bought the vivid enamel and the primary elements but haven’t tried them yet.

    • @ThePaintedDreamer
      @ThePaintedDreamer  3 года назад

      You’re very welcome Barbara! Thank YOU!! Yea unfortunately you don’t want to torch any of these products even just a little bit, the pillow might be ok for a few seconds but you run the risk of scorching it. For the PM base with the varnish you absolutely don’t want to torch it because not only is it a fire hazard with the varnish in it but it also releases toxins into the air. I’m curious about the vivid enamel, let me know how you like it! 😃💜

    Hey Jodie thanks so much for doing these videos; I've really enjoyed them!
    I tried the Infinity too (guess I was lucky to get a good quart!) after Shelee mentioned it as a good option. I mix with polycrylic and was using micas and after making my paint thought, ohhhh no this is way too thin, there is no way this is going to work! But it turned out gorgeous! And it dried beautifully. I used a black pillow paint since I was using chameleons and black cell activator and the colors just pop! So, so beautiful.
    I tried mixing some of the Behr in with another test (1 part polycrylic, 1 part Behr, 1 part Infinity and then fix the consistency by adding one of the paints to get what I want) and while it wasn't as pretty (I was just using regular paints and micas and the white cell activator, which was getting kind of old) it certainly worked at least. Guess I'll bite the bullet and test with my chameleons to get a true comparison. I need to find my set of 'regular paints' that I know work well, like you've done here, to really get a good comparison I guess.
    Thanks again!!

I think it’s like with anything else, every once in a great while a bad something sneaks in ☺️ .. you are one step ahead of me haha! I was going to test the Behr/infinity mixed together like I mix the Behr/Glidden I just haven’t been able to yet but I did test them mixed up separately but used in the same painting and they definitely work well together!

      You are absolutely welcome Melody! Honestly I love them all!! This Infinity is amazing though as long as you don’t get a weird can. But, I do know with the Glidden having some titanium white in it, if that’s a bother for you maybe give the infinity a go but if it doesn’t bother you keep with it, it’s a great PM (Behr/Glidden/jo sonja) ... Me personally though I like using one PM for one thing and another for another depending on the effect I’m after but if you want one PM only .. I think this Infinity may be a good one for all paints (tube, fluid and pigments). Some use the Behr for everything but it was way too thick for me with the tube paints which is why I mixed with the Glidden 😊

If I’m using the US floetrol I have a couple recipes, one with the Minwax Prestain conditioner (video #16) and then one with just US floetrol and Amsterdam paint at a high ratio (video #91) of either 9 or 10:1.

Les pièces n'ont pas besoin d'être exactes. 🤗

      Thanks so much Margaret 🤗. The thicker infinity in the quart can is the same as in the gallon can, it’s the untinted base paint and not a varnish to use to finish your pieces. If you’re looking for a varnish to finish your pieces with I use and recommend the Liquitex Professional line, they have a high gloss, gloss and satin and also they have brush on or spray on. I use the brush on but have my own method of applying. Hope this helps! 🤗💜

    So, I’m curious about something. I’ve taken the course and have had great success. That said, I’m noticing something weird. I’ve used Valspar Ultra High Gloss Base C and I’ve just returned from Lowe’s with the HGTV Infinity Semi Gloss Base C. Both of them have produced very muted colors. I had to add some Primary Elements Boysenberry to the Diaz Purple to get that deep color to return….same with the Prizm Pour Honey Gold, I added Pearl Ex Brilliant Gold and it’s still a bit muted. Ideas? No Home Depot here, just Lowe’s. (Sutter Creek, CA) Anywho, any pointers are most welcome! Thanks Jodie! Oh, I forgot, using Jo Sonja Varnish.

    • @ThePaintedDreamer
      @ThePaintedDreamer  3 года назад

      Hi Kathy 🤗 that is a bit peculiar as both of those bases shouldn’t mute your colors, are you noticing it on all colors or just certain ones? Also since you said you live in CA I’m wondering if the untinted base paints are a bit different. I say this because you can’t get the Behr 8300 that the rest of the country has CA and I think AZ have their own version called the Behr 2-8300 because certain ingredients are illegal in those states. I’m curious if it’s the same thing with the Valspar and the Infinity or it’s just certain colors for you. I’m also going to ask a friend of my who experiments way more than I do to see if it’s maybe the bases themselves is she has heard anything. 💜

      Since you’re in Australia you won’t be able to get the same brands of paint as we have here but you do have the magic sauce of the Aussie floetrol for your cell activator 🤗. The two parts to your pouring medium is the untinted house paint in gloss and then a clear gloss water based polyurethane varnish, you can certainly use jo sonja for that part yes. For the pillow you want a low sheen white interior wall paint, I think what is popular there for pillow use is the British paints but there may be others as well if you want to experiment, hope this helps! 💜

      White specks or dots can be from bubbles that have popped, you can let your paints sit awhile and stir them gently, poke any back down that you don’t like. This is what I do anyways but if it’s something else or not bubbles it may be a paint reaction of some kind or something is not playing nice together and trial & error will be needed to discover what it is 😊
