in this series i
will give you a step by step guide to it. pay attention. to start off, these are the list of chemicals you need
to produce paint. 1. Water
4. Colourite
5. P.V.A
6. Formalin
7. Nitrosol
8. Ammonia
9. Hydrosol
11. Acrydext
Others include
12. Geniple
13. K14
14. Bama cork
in the next post i will give u the functions of these chemicals one after the other. glue to this post.
okay you are welcomed back. i wish to apologize for the delay in transmission i was actually engaged in
production and painting of some houses against easter celebration. thats by the way. now lets go back
to classroom. Functions of the chemicals
1. water
Water is used to mix all the chemicals together. It must not be a hot water. You can use any type of
clean and neat water with normal water temperature. However, I prefer soft water to cold water. It
helps to mix the paints more easily.
2. Titherni
It is whitening chemical in powdery form. You can always get it where they are selling paint chemical, or
rather industrial chemical. Just ask of titherni it will be given to you. It performs the function of making
sure that you with paint is shining and not dull. This is the secret of some big names in painting industry.
We shall give you the ratio down the line. It is only used when you are producing with paint. That does
not mean you cannot use it in other colours but the function is more significant in white paints.
3. Calcium Carbonate
This chemical is also in powdery form. It is packaged in bags and they write CalCo on it. It is made by so
many companies, I would not like to advertise any but just ask of calcium and it will be given to you.
We have delomite and cacite. Both are good but delomite is recommended if you are producing pure
white paint and cacite is better in off white (dirty white) paint.
4. Colourite
This is the most important of the entire course. It involves the ability of mixing some colours to get a
desired result. It is not difficult at all if you have initiative and artistic eye.
These are the colours we have in raw form ( please permit me to call them primary colours because all
other colours in the painting industry is gotten from them)
They are: yellow ( we painters call it cream), Red, Black, Blue, and Green. All other colours are gotten
from a combination of one or two of these.
What about White paint? You might ask. Well we do not need to have a pure white colour because, we
make our paints with CalCo and it gives us white naturally. In fact once you put your calcium in water
you get white paint. I hope that is clear.
We shall cover how to mix the paints to get particular result. But for now just know that colours can be
found in paste or oxide. When we say colours are in paste we mean that they are in condensed liquid
form (like your pomade), when they are in oxide it means they are in dust form (like your wife’s
powder). A colour like cream has both oxide and paste. Red and black are mostly in oxide, green and
Blue are in paste. For those who might be wondering which one to use between the yellow oxide and
yellow paste, I suggest that if you want the colour you are producing to be deep yellow like MTN colour,
you should use paste, otherwise use oxide.
CAUTION: you MUST dilute the colours very well with a little water before you apply it to your paint. For
example if you get a red oxide, pour a cup of water in a different container mix thoroughly. If not, your
paint will be having dotted stains as you roll it on the wall.
5. P.V.A.
This chemical is very important. I guess you might have seen a situation where after painting a building,
when you rub your hand on the surface it will be dusting. That is as a result of ill usage of this liquid
formed chemical. In my experience, some big names in the painting industry do not even know how to
use it. But you not worry, I will tell you and who know you might become their next consultant.
6. Formalin
It does the function of preservative.
7. Nitrosol
It helps to hold the paints together i.e it is a thickener. Its correct usage makes the paint more durable
on the wall.
8. Ammonia
This is your secondary school laughing gas. It is also used to make the paints more durable. It serves as a
preservative agent too.
9. Hydrosol
This is the chemical that integrates the colours and brings out the best in them. It is used to correct
dullness in paints.
This is usually used in the production of textcoat paints. It is of two types rough and smooth. The
preference is determined by what you want to achieve. If you want sandy textcoat i.e the one without
lining, you use only rough type. However, the combination of both in the same ratio gives a better
result.
11. Acrytext
12. Geniple
This one just does the function of giving the painter a scintillating perfume as he does his job.
12. K14
It is also a preservative.
It does the function of nitrosol. If you use bama cork you do not need to use nitrosol.
next is our first sample of emulsion paints after which we shall treat textcote and its types. enjoy.
Step 1.
i.e. normal 20 litres of paint as drum), pour water in the bucket up to half (8
liters of water) you can always increase the volume of water at any stage if
necessary. Add less than half bag of Calcuim (add until the mixture rises to
about 17 liters in the bucket) by now the drum will be quarter empty. NOTE;
if you are producing white paint, you will mix titherni in water before
Step 2:
Add your colour. It is assumed that by now you must have diluted the
colours as required with water if they are oxide. Now put colour in small
rations and keep turning until you get your desired result. You can always
add more if you like. Suppose you added more yellow for example, than you
need, you can correct it by adding more calcium (but not after this stage)
Bear in mind that the colour may be deeper when wet and lighter when the
paint is dried.
Step 3
Add --kg of P.V.A to the mixture. After turning add half glass cup of
Next add about -- centiliter of formalin and about same volume for ammonia
and hydrosol sequentially. Turn very well at any addition of a new chemical.
Final step
When you have completed the above steps, make sure that you turn the
above mixture very well. As you are turning it you might be a little fidgeted
that you have wasted your resources. You don’t need to be afraid. Just
add acrytext to the mixture and turn. Add it in small quantity until you get
the thickness you desire. However if you add access you might spoil your
mixture. Now that you paint is ready, just take your scraper, brush and roller
Warning: please the chemicals must be added in the order I have given
you. If not you may have problem for example if you put ammonia before
Nitrosol, the paint will get blocked. And again if ammonia drops in Nitrosol,
the Nitrosol will block. More so, when formalin is poured into ammonia it
will explode. The only time you can add ammonia before Nitrosol is when
it appears that some ratio were omited. you can now rush to http://freecashmanuals.blogspot.com/ and
get the full detail. this lesson is concluded. enjoy.

I sincerely welcome to this course. we shall be treating how to produce all kinds of paints from
emulsion, textcoat, and Satin otherwise called nylon or washable paint. lets get started.

12. K14
It is also a preservative.
It does the function of nitrosol. If you use bama cork you do not need to use nitrosol.
Emulsion are those ordinary paints that are not roughened with sand-like objects. The once that are
sand-like are regarded as textcoat. You need to aware that there are other types of paint as well. Satin,
oil e.t.c we shall treat them separately but for now let us concentrate with textcoat and emulsion.
For emulsion
Step 1.
For one bucket production (hence we shall be referring to bucket of paint i.e. normal -- litres of paint as
drum), pour water in the bucket up to half (-- liters of water) you can always increase the volume of
water at any stage if necessary. Add less than half bag of Calcuim (add until the mixture rises to about
17 liters in the bucket) by now the drum will be quarter empty. NOTE; if you are producing white paint,
you will mix titherni in water before adding calcium. -- spoons of titherni are enough. MIX VERY WELL.
Step 2:
Add your colour. It is assumed that by now you must have diluted the colours as required with water if
they are oxide. Now put colour in small rations and keep turning until you get your desired result. You
can always add more if you like. Suppose you added more yellow for example, than you need, you can
correct it by adding more calcium (but not after this stage) Bear in mind that the colour may be deeper
when wet and lighter when the paint is dried.
Step 3
Add --kg of P.V.A to the mixture. After turning add half glass cup of nitrosol. Nitrosol is always in
powdery form so you must dilute it in small water before you add to your mixture.
Next add about -- centiliter of formalin and about same volume for ammonia and hydrosol sequentially.
Turn very well at any addition of a new chemical.
Final step
When you have completed the above steps, make sure that you turn the above mixture very well. As
you are turning it you might be a little fidgeted that you have wasted your resources. You don’t need to
be afraid. Just add acrytext to the mixture and turn. Add it in small quantity until you get the thickness
you desire. However if you add access you might spoil your mixture. Now that you paint is ready, just
take your scraper, brush and roller and roll away your newly built house.
Warning: please the chemicals must be added in the order I have given you. If not you may have
problem for example if you put ammonia before Nitrosol, the paint will get blocked. And again if
ammonia drops in Nitrosol, the Nitrosol will block. More so, when formalin is poured into ammonia it
will explode. The only time you can add ammonia before Nitrosol is when you are turning on machine
speed. Just be careful.
If we are working wit 350 litres of butter, we shall have about 16 drums of paint after production.
Now 350 litres butter goes with -- litres of water i.e. pour -- and half paint buckets of water
-- kg of P.V.A (for super quality paint or --kg for less quality paint)
-- kg of Nitrosol
Others has no specific quantity. You just add with discretion but make sure you do not over add
especially Acrytext.
Production of Textcoat
Step 1:
Pour about -- liters of water into the bucket, add -- bag of Calcuim (or less) then add your colours as it is
supposed to be.
Step 2: now after turning the mixture above, you add marble dust( I hope you remember what we said
about marble dust above). Good. You will notice that some textcoat paints have a kind of lining and
some has only rough surface. And there are those that we call designer textcoat such are the once that
they use with the aid of a special roller to design houses so that its end effect will be something like
flowers or blocks made of paint in your house. Am sure you must have seen such paint. It is called
artwork in the painting industry. All these are textcoat but it is the mode of application of this chemical
that makes different types.
For rough textcoats use only rough marble dust in your production
For lining textcoats use a combination of rough and smooth marble dust in equal ratio( if you are
producing this one I will advice you add smooth marble dust first after turning add the rough one)
Now as you are adding the marble dust, you will notice that the volume of your mixture is increasing.
Just add according to your own discretion it has no specific measurement. If you are confused on the
quantity to add, just keep adding until the drum is -- empty. Use your initiative. Please do not use only
smooth marble dust for production unless you are producing artwork that needs a designer roller.
Step 3: when you are through with turning of this mixture (turn very well), you will now add your P.V.A.
and other chemicals like we said in emulsion. However you will need to increase their volume a little. For
example you will need full glass cup of Nitrosol and increase the volume of other chemicals a little.
When you have finish adding all the other chemical up to Hydrosol, you can go and gym in order to
activate your muscle for turning the paint as you add Acrytext. On the addition of acritext the paint will
become strong. Now to know if the Acrytext you added is enough, take a small portion of the paint and
touch it on the wall. If the teething is not falling congratulations if it is falling add more. Now you can go
and roll away your textcoat on your parlour.
When this is done call your marketer and take the latest product to the hungry market.
I hope you remember we did mention Satin paint some where. This is the type of paint that is generally
regarded as nylon paint. It is called nylon paint because it is washable ( u can use water to wash it when
it is dirty.
Production of Satin
Use About -- litres of water. Add calcium in a small quantity to make the paint light. What I mean is that
the thickness of the paint at this stage will be less than the thickness it has when we are producing
emulsion.
Add -- kg of Acritext
Thank you.
i hope i have given enough information to you if you really want to get the rations i.e where i placed --,
pay the sum of N3000 to the following
