i am very sure that paints can be produced to standard qaulity right from your backyard. 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

2. Titherni (used only for the production of white paint)

3. Calcium carbonate (Calcium)

4. Colourite

5. P.V.A

6. Formalin

7. Nitrosol

8. Ammonia

9. Hydrosol

10. Marble dust

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.

I AM FOLLOWING YOU

Nice one, let's go there.

Op, where u waka go? Oya come & pinish what u started!

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.

Now calcium carbonate is of two or types

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.

10. Marble dust

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

This is used as a thickener. It holds the seemingly watery paint together.

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.

13. Bama cork

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.

we shall be producing our first emulsion paint on Monday. i want to urge you to kindly provide the necessary chemicals aforementioned above.happy easter nairalanders. enjoy.

nice thread

nice one

For 1 bucket of emulsion

Step 1.
Mix Calcuim Carbonate in water
For one bucket production (hence we shall be referring to bucket of paint
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

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.
it appears that some ratio were omited. you can now rush to http://freecashmanuals..com/ and get the full detail. this lesson is concluded. enjoy.

You have done well

God bless and increase you for sharing this info free.

Yet people are messing with this thread. Some paintmakers have become Billionaires.

How much is your paint mixer and what are the sizes you have ?

COPY and PASTE

Nice post you have ....Really The high demand for building paints in Nigeria has made the business of paint production very lucrative. I found other useful information here >> http://nigeriabusinessmanuals..com.ng/2015/09/how-to-start-paint-production-business.html

Good Bro.

Good evening house, please is there anyone who has an ideal where I can get the raw materials for Paint production within Ado-Ekiti? ?

Please its urgent
