Spanish white, also called whiting, is natural calcium carbonate (chalk) as a fine powder with no binder. In Studio grade, this 500 g bag is used mainly as a filler and white base: for traditional gesso, primers, putties and paint fillers.

Features

  • Material: natural calcium carbonate (Spanish white / whiting, PW18)
  • Form: fine powder, no binder
  • Packaging: bag
  • Size: 500 g
  • Grade: Studio
  • Reference: 66-BEB500

What it is used for

Spanish white has low covering power and turns translucent in oil, so it is not used as a paint white but as a filler and a base. Common uses are: traditional gesso, primers and grounds for rigid supports, putties and plasters, and a filler that gives body to paints and pastes. For a covering paint white, see titanium white and the rest of our powder pigments.

Studio grade: in Spanish white, quality is set by the purity of the calcium carbonate, its whiteness and the fineness of the grind. The Studio grade is the option for general use and workshop jobs; if you want the highest quality in our range, there is the 1 kg Artist Spanish white.

Why the 500 g size: it is the bag for trying things out, for small pieces or for keeping a white filler to hand without buying too much.

Handling and storage

  • Wear a dust mask and gloves, and avoid draughts that lift the dust.
  • Clean up with a damp cloth rather than sweeping dry.
  • Keep the bag tightly closed, dry, with the original label.
