| Maimeri Restauro: Varnish Colours |
|
Pure, authentic, lightfast pigments mixed with mastic resin and refined hydrocarbon solvents are the ingredients that go into this line of colours that has proven popular with restoration and conservation workers the world over. Restoration is a severe test, pitting half a century of Maimeri quality against the great masterworks of western art. This line makes use of a number of earths, which Maimeri still obtains from the best sources: authentic Sienna Earth, often replaced by imitations using artificial oxides in today’s colours, various shades of Green Earths, authentic Umber Earths and Cassel Earths. Ocres, natural iron oxides, are still obtained by grinding the mineral; Maimeri does not use artificial precipitates prepared by industrial processes. Only the Lakes have been replaced by new products of organic synthesis, which maintain the same tone as the traditional pigment but with better lightfastness. Naples Yellow is lead antimoniate, as required by medieval recipes, and of course the mastic resin used is from the Island of Chios, whose name has always been linked with the best-known varnish resin. Sold in 20 ml tubes.

| Maimeri Restauro: Ketonic Resin Colours |
|
Ketonic resin colours for restoration are the outcome of a study intended to complete the range of colours for retouching which Maimeri offers for conservation and restoration work of all kinds the world over. The new range of colours, produced by binding lightfast tested pigments with ketonic resin and selected hydrocarbon solvents only, now offers the greatest reversibility and resistance to yellowing. Ketonic resin colours are offered alongside the traditional line of mastic resin based colours for restoration in response to the most recent demands of scientific research into the conservation of works of art. While the proven line of mastic resin colours is ideal for touching up works which have been varnished or finished with traditional natural resins, this new line is better suited for use with modern synthetic varnishes, now used in restoration and conservation even of older paintings, adding the value of unbeatable lightfastness in the binder. The two lines may be mixed together and thinned using the same thinners. Sold in 40 ml tubes. |
