Peacock Silver Antiquing Compound is used to give mirrored finishes an aged, antique tarnish. To create an antique finish, first create your mirrored finish. Sprinkle the antiquing compound onto the reflective surface (when wet or dry) and then apply the mirror backing paint. As the antiquing compound reacts with the mirror coat, it will "age" the finish.Antiquing compound must ship as a hazardous good and is assessed an additional hazmat fee.

#69 Thinner is a medium speed lacquer thinner. Use when the ambient temperature is 66°F to 85°F. When spraying, thin 20%. If the Permalac is drying too quickly, and you notice blush or any other adverse effects, you can increase this to 30%. When brushing, thin 10%.UPS requires an additional hazardous materials fee for one gallon or larger containers. UPS also requires special spill-resistant packaging for one gallon or larger containers. You can avoid these fees if you order in quarts.

Copper Tite Vehicle #3 is a crystal-clear, durable air-dry lacquer that provides superior tarnish protection and remarkable resistance to salt-air atmosphere as well as superior resistance to ultra-violet light. Formulated without harmful organic compounds, it has special ingredients that chemically bond to the copper or the silver layer of a mirror. It can be used in different ways as a mirror backing paint. Used alone as a clear finish, a one way mirror is created. On antique mirrors where the copper layer must not show through, it can be used as a "copper free" prime coat followed by a top coat of, for example, the #175 mirror backing. When it is mixed with the Peacock Copper Powder, it forms the basis of Peacock's non-electrolytic copper backing process. In this process, a specially prepared copper powder is dispersed in the copper tite vehicle and then sprayed onto silver forming a copper-polymer prime coat. Top with #175 Mirror Backing Paint. Thin with #281 Standard Thinner.

Out of stockThe #390 Gray Mirror Backing Paint is specially formulated to serve as a protective coating on silver for decorative applications. This high-solids (more than 60%), lead-free coating can be applied directly on silver or on top of copper to provide superior protection for silver from corrosion. The paint can be applied using brush, spray, roller, or curtain coating. May be thinned with a variety of solvents (#281, #178 or xylene) to meet stringent air quality standards. Use a thinning ratio of between 2:1 and 1:1 paint to thinner. Approximate coverage is 500 square feet per gallon.
