Powertex was started by Brigitte Grade and was launched in Belgium in September 2001 after being tested extensively for 6 months by crafters and artists.
Powertex is an environmentally friendly, non-toxic, highly versatile, water-based hardener that is used by artists and hobbyists worldwide. Powertex is compatible with paper, textile, leather, cardboard, fibreglass, wood, sand, Stone Art etc. Powertex will transform textiles into masterpieces. It is a remarkable adhesive.
Powertex is very easy to work on canvas to exhibit 3 dimensional works. When using Powertex Transparent and a piece of fabric with motives on, the motives will remain in the original shape. To colour Powertex is very easy, just add Powertex colour pigment of your choice. Statues and designs made with Powertex can also be painted with oil paint or a varnish mixed with power colour pigments.
Powertex is a liquid medium that is ready to be used straight from the container. Powertexcan be brushed onto items or dipped directly into the product. Powertex remains flexible for quite a while (depending on temperature). Treated fabric can be draped, folded and manipulated into many different ways. Powertex takes about 2 weeks to cure although it will be dry to the touch within an hour or two.
Old T-Shirts, sheets, kiddie clothes and especially absorbent fabrics are excellent for Powertex. If you want to make a garden statue, no problem. Just varnish once dry and it will remain as is, for many years to come.
THE VIDEO
Powertex has undergone extensive testing and has been awarded the AP Seal which means that it has been found to be non-toxic for adults and children.
Who Enjoys Working With Powertex?
Any artist or crafter will enjoy using Powertex. Add some Stone Art to your Powertex and you have a beautiful air-dry clay that can be used to sculpt or for making beautiful pieces of jewellery. Stone art is very versatile and gives a beautiful stone finish to objects once polished. Your masterpiece can be varnished with acrylic varnish once completed. If you don’t have time to use all the clay just store in an air tight container and continue later. It will remain as good as new.
Available in South Africa in the following colours: Bronze, Lead, Terracotta, Ivory and Transparent and arriving soon the all new BISTER!
Examples of some of the beautiful pigments that can be mixed with Powertex to create different colours.
Stone Art
Stone art is a white powder that is mixed with Powertex to create an air dry clay. Lovely for children to make figurines and for the artist that needs something specific on a canvas. Stone Art gives a beautiful stone effect once polished by hand or with a soft cloth.
To obtain a air dry clay mix the Powertex and Stone Art 1:1 and knead the substance until you have a firm mixture comparable to kneading dough. Once the clay no longer sticks to your hands it is ready to be used. With this unique clay one can model or mould by applying layers of Stone Art and adding structure to your design. The easiest way to work is by using a pre-shaped figure made from polystyrene, paper machè, wood or by bending wire into a figurine and building that up with tinfoil and covering with masking tape. Drape fabric dipped in Powertex and/or add Stone Art as you wish.
Pigment And Colortricx
We also have a beautiful range of pigments and metallic colours called “colortricx”, eg. silver, clear gold, rich gold, bronze gold, copper etc. These are used to highlight areas of your design. By dipping your brush into a little varnish mixed with a very small amount of Colortricx, dry brush the areas that need to be highlighted.
