Chrome-III-oxide, has a dull-covering property.
A wide range of natural greens can be mixed by adding different shades of yellow, brown or orange.

For the calculation of the required pigments, you can help yourself with the table, which you can find in the gallery pictures. It is best to mix a coloured dough with the wetting agent and water. To read the instructions for mixing the coloured dough click here.

Special advice for working with chrome oxide green with Marmorino or Stucco Veneziano:
Chrome is harder than the steel of the Venetian Smoothing Trowel and leaves dark metal abrasion marks when compressed. If you do not want this discolouration, I recommend you to order a PVC smoothing trowel as well.
Here you can buy the PVC smoothing trowel.
