Paverpol - Textile Hardener


Paverpol is an environment friendly fluid used to make fabric rock hard. It’s original color is white, but it will dry as transparent in a few hours. The final hardening process takes in between 1 and 2 weeks, depending on the temperature. Paverpol artwork is weather resistant after hardening completely. It will withstand rain, wind, sun, snow and frost.
Tools and hands can simply be washed in warm water. There is no need to wear gloves. The textiles and decoration hardener par excellence! Dip natural materials, such as textiles, in Paverpol. Drape or wrap the material around a wire figure or other armature and leave it to dry. Paverpol dries fast, but slowly enough to allow plenty of working time. After it has hardened, you have created a beautiful decoration or sculpture, which can be used indoors as well as outdoors. It is also possible to combine Paverpol with paper, silk, chamois leather, self-hardening clay, polystyrene foam, dried flowers, wood, plaster, pottery, etc.
Half liter generally enough product for up to two 8” figurines, bronzing baby shoes, or a 14” figurine. Scroll down or click here for more projects using Paverpol.

Only Figure Armatures are great for use with Paverpol!

IMPORTANT: DO NOT pour Paverpol down your drain – keep a bucket of water at your workstation and rinse hands and brushes frequently. While Paverpol is water-based and non-toxic, it is made to cure rock-hard, and you don’t want it stuck in your plumbing. Periodically clean the bucket; let the material in the water settled, pour off the water into flower garden, etc. The solids that have collected at the bottom of the bucket can be disposed of in any trash receptacle.


Yes! Paverpol got the highest American Safety label!

Paverpol, an environmental friendly product! Though we already knew that Paverpol is an environmental friendly product ourselves, this confirmation is the crown on our work. Europe doesn't really know a specific type of safety label but Paverpol is also approved in Scandinavian countries, who are carrying high standards regarding safety policies.

The USA is very strict regarding the import of foreign products. Especially when the product is suitable for use in the educational sector. Two North American laboratories have been working for almost a year doing tests and research on Paverpol. They asked a lot of questions! But Paverpol successfully passed all the tests! It's the only textile hardener which is allowed to be used by adults and children in the USA. And they're proud of it!



Paverpol ArtStone

A fun product! Art Stone can be used in two different ways. You can use it to make self-hardening clay, or you can use the powder to created a stone-look finish to your sculptures. To make a stone finish, use Paverpol lead color or Paverpol transparent mixed with Pavercolor Siena as a basis. (Of course, you can also mix with other Pavercolors if desired. You can use a preformed figure of styrofoam, plaster, paper mache, or kitchen foil covered with masking or floral tape). Mix the colored Paverpol with the same amount of Art Stone Decoration Powder until the clay is one lump that no longer sticks to your hands. Cover your form completely with the colored Paverpol. Put the clay fully or partially onto the layer that is still wet—layer thick or thin, coarse or fine, whatever you like.

Make sure that the bottom layer is wet. (If needed, apply a new layer of Paverpol using the brush.) When your work is fully or partially decorated with the clay, scatter some powder over it and rub it in well. Apply some Paverpol with a brush if the base has become too dry. You can also scatter a little Paverpol on the wet layer and rub it afterwards. This stone effect is not suitable for outdoor objects. If you want to leave the piece of work outside, you can use pastina instead of powder, which can be made by mixing white Pavercolor with Josefine gloss varnish. Apply with a brush. Remove the surplus patina with a tissue. Let the work dry and make it glossy with a lint-free cloth. To make jewelery: Create stones of clay, use a skewer to make holes in them, and get a leather lace to thread the beads.

Paverplast

 This is the newest Paverpol product! Simply mix this powder with Paverpol (100 grams for 1/2 litre) and you can create an indelible sculpting pasta.

This is suitable for creating pieces of work that remain watertight, such as bird basins, fountains, pools, etc. It can also be used to provide sculptures of styrofoam, plaster, self-hardening clay, papier-mâché etc. with a completely watertight layer. Varnishing is not required.

Paverplast mixed with Paverpol can be colored with Pavercolor. Store in an airtight sealable tray as it is an air-dry product. If the Paverplast becomes too stiff, you can add some Paverpol. Do not add water!

Pavercotton

A 100 % cotton fiber. When dipped in the Paverpol and squeezed out well, it can be used to make hair/wigs for the Paverpol figurines.

Project idea: Cover a dish with cling film and put the Pavercotton tuffs dipped in Paverpol on one side of the cling film. The dish is only to be used as a mould, and will not be damaged.

After it has dried and hardened (for at least one week) you can take the dish off. The side that was covered by plastic will still need to dry. You have to be patient for this, but if you do, you will end up with a unique cotton dish which can be used as a creative decorative bowl.

Josefine Varnish

These high-quality outdoor varnishes from Holland are extremely user-friendly. Brushes can easily be cleaned with water and soap. Available in very matte finish. These can be used to protect garden objects that have not been made watertight or resistant to the elements.

The varnishes can also be used in combination with Pavercolor in order to create a watertight paint. This technique is used to decorate objects by applying color emphasis, dry-brushing or adding patina effects. Do not use matte varnish on dark colors.
