If you’re like me and have so many projects on the go that it may be some time before you go back to use your PeBeo Prisme paints, perhaps you find they may have thickened up in the meantime... 😩 Don’t bin them - there’s a product you can buy to thin them out instead of wasting probably hundreds of whatever your currency is. This product is a fine arts quality turpentine, and I add a little at a time using a pipette until I get the right consistency. I also use sharpened chopsticks to both mix and paint. Never shake as the bubbles formed will transfer themselves when painting and ruin the effect. Use a mask and in a well-ventilated space, if possible outdoors but never leave the lids off for more time than necessary. Take frequent breaks if using this thinning agent. - One last recommendation - When leaving pieces to dry - and this obviously depends on the size of the piece you’re painting - try and form a shade to stop dust settling as you WILL see it. You can always paint over it... If they’re small pieces, a cake rack with a plate on top or a piece of cling film would suffice. Leave the sides open. Always work on a sheet of plastic - your splash-sheet - and don’t clean any drips of paint off until they’ve dried. You can peel them off and use them for other art work, even insert them into resin or melted embossing powder (quicker). Enjoy your paints.
Thanks for all the tips!
what is the product for thinning called?
@@finnmacwoof2138 It’s called Essential Oil of Petroleum (or Huile essentielle de pétrole - they always write everything in French) by PeBeo. There might be something similar which does the same job but I didn’t want to risk damaging the properties of the paint.
I, too, am in love with these special paints. I have found that if you wait a little while until the paints are just kind of "tacky" you can drag a tooth pick through them to create some effects that will not "disappear" on you! Great video and thanks for sharing!
I think you must have to time it just right, will have to experiment with that. Thanks for the tip!
Hi Sandy. I really appreciate how you explain these products. I bought a bunch of the Pebeo paints, but I wasn't sure about how to use them. This really helps. Thank you.
I'm so glad it was helpful, LIla. I LOVE playing with Pebeos, hope you have fun, too!
Wow, Sandy, outstanding demonstration, tips, and suggestions. I bought over $200 of every kind, including the transparent ones for faux stained glass. Haven't used one of them yet, which is why I watched your instruction. You've got my courage up now! A+
Hope you have fun with them, Leah. Happy creating!
The most important thing is you have to MIX THE PAINTS WITH A POPCYCLE STICK for a long time to MIX THE POWDER IN THE BOTTOM OF THE BOTTLE with the paint. If you mix them really well they will HONEYCOMB EVERY TIME.
Thank you. I used to shake my bottles, I will try mixing as you say.
Wayne Anderson you shouldn’t shake them because that way you introduce bubbles, and that, in turn has an effect on the -I call it the cauliflower effect 🤣.
I use a chopstick... 🤣
Oh I like the nice presentation of your videos...looking forward to checking out the rest of them! Thanks Sandy
Thanks, Alison! Glad you enjoy. 😁
Moon wants to take over, doesn't it? Nice demo 👍🏻
Thanks, Vicki! Yes, Moon will take over if you’re not careful. It is a beautiful effect, though.
What a timely video. I got the moon and prisme discovery sets yesterday and have a bunch of test pieces drying in the garage at the moment. I used flat circles of junk clay that I baked and added "walls" of blue tape around to keep the paint from escaping.
I'm having mixed results so far and am wondering how I can used these as elements in other projects since, I've read that baking them (say on a bracelet or pendant) would be a bad idea. I really look forward to see what you do with them!!!
oops. how funny, I just saw "July 8" and didn't notice it was a whole year ago! ha ha
NO! Amazing, love the turquoise! I loved some of the pieces without paint!❤️🌻👍
Thanks, Jeannine!
I use these on resin pieces. Cool effects.
😀
I also like to add a dome of resin to pebeo pieces like this.
I agree! It enhances the beautiful effects. Happy creating, Vicki. 🙂
I love Blue!
Thanks Sandy.. the bamboo sticks are a goer!
Does that mean you like them? LOL 😁
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress yes I was pondering small stirrers as I have recently bought a pile of these.. so cool😊
Hi! Thank you for all the videos you do! These paints are amazing! When you showed the set of a lot of things you made, I just had to tell you that I absolutely LOVE the one on the top row, second from the left! It turned out looking like a fantasy forest with a tree on the right! So beautiful!
Aren't they fun? I just love the unpredictability of them!
put hot glue around one. let it dry then it won’t drip off. maybe the easy peel stuff you put on silicone for resin. I just got this set and it’s pretty sticky, resin like stick.
Thanks for the tip. 🙂
They all look awesome to me.
Thanks, Patricia! It's been a while since I played with my Pebeo's, I may have to pull them out and see what else I can come up with. Happy creating!
I think your so-called “lumpy” pendant is pretty.
Thanks! 😀
There can never be too much turquoise in anything.
I'm glad you think so, too! :-)
those are gorgeous even without the honeycomb effect.
Thank you, Silvia!
Interesting Technic
They are very cool paints, with lots of fun possible techniques.
Could u wrap them in clear tape and make an edge like when working in resin to contain the paint or would it stick to tape? I'm gonna try that
That might work. Give it a try and let us know how you make out!
Can this be used on a bowl with curved sides? I have only seen it used on a flat surface. Has anyone tried poring it down the sides of a bowl?
That’s a very good question, Linda! The honeycomb effects work best on flat level surfaces. Also, the paints will tend to pool, which explains why you’ve only seen them on flat pieces.
If you want to use them on something like a bowl, I would suggest using flat pieces as accents, rather than trying to paint the whole thing.
Hope this helps, happy creating!
Is it hardwearing? Would you need to cover jewellery pieces with resin to make them more durable?
That’s a very good question, Anne! 🙂 It is oil paint, so should be fairly durable once fully dried. But it really depends on the application. If it’s something that’s going to get banged around a lot it may need a little bit more protection.
Hello, do you know if the effect is also on small bases such as circles with a diameter of 1 cm?
Thank you
As long as you stir thoroughly you should get the effects even in a small space.
How did you do the silvery swirly looking ones on the left side of the screen at 5:25? They are my favorite.
Hi Alaina, Glad you like them! Those ones are faux leopardskin jasper from the book Polymer Clay Gemstones: The Art of Deception amzn.to/3cz5q0A
Happy creating! :-)
can something you paint be sealed to use outside?
Pebeos are an oil-based paint, so I would think they'd be fine outside without any sealer. But it's probably safest to do a little testing.
don't stop with the blue, I would do every thing in blue if I could get away with it. Read somewhere not to mix the moon with Prism.. that particular style just seems to mostly wipe out prism instead of joining with it....
Oh, maybe that's why some of my things didn't come out as expected. I'll keep it in mind.
Yup, gonna make it blue whenever I want to! :-D
Question........ I was able to find the Pebe Prisme Fantasy Paints, HOWEVER at this point, they are getting harder to find and some of the colors have been out of stock for awhile. Is there anything on the market that is LIKE this product? Most of the videos for Pebeo techniques are 5-8 years old.........hence I can see why these are going to be REALLY hard to find in the future!
Hi Keely, thanks for the question. Hmmm, based on what you shared I wonder if they’re ceasing production of Pebeos? At the moment I’m not aware of any product like them.
If other viewers have more info, please let us know!
So I got the paints but ran into some difficulties. I put them on a clear or white resin piece. For a while they have the honeycomb/prism effect but that goes away and turns into a marbled effect. it looks nice too but that is not what I am looking for. Does anyone have any ideas what I could do wrong? I can see that most of your pieces look marbled too. Maybe the honeycomb effect is only very clear if you just use one color?
The thicker you put them on, the more pronounced the honeycomb effect. Also, if you use Moon paints, they will take over. Another thing I've noticed is that the honeycomb effect seems to stay better if the paint is contained, such as in a bezel. Make sure that you stir really well, then experiment!
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress Thanks for your answer :-) the resin pieces are bezel like as the surface is smooth and the edges are raised. I've read about the stirring so I shakes and stirred for long minutes. the honeycomb effect is there after a few minutes but then it goes away. i will try to use single colors and see what happens there.
I was looking for an answer to this question as have done some bezels recently which look amazing when first done but the honeycomb disappears! I would love to hear if you solved the problem? 🦆🤔
Hi! How long u til they are completely dry so I can add earring findings?
You should refer to the product specifications for the details on drying times, but know that it also depends on the thickness of the application, as well as the heat and humidity of your location.
I don’t see the link from Amazon
Hi Sharon, This video is from several years ago when I was sharing the links only on my blog posts, keepsakecrafts.net/blog/2016/07/08/pebeo-prisme-fantasy-paints-intro-video-friday-findings/ Happy creating!
Help Sandy - tried the paint out and the honeycomb ones look nothing like your sample:( Am I supposed to put the vitral down first? For sure they look like hard plastic on a canvas. Should I use a small brush or something?
Are you using the Prisme paints? The vitrail doesn't have that look.
If you are indeed using the Prisme type, then you need to stir, stir and stir some more. Stir between every application.
You don't need to put anything else down, but it helps to have the paint in a contained area, like a bezel. They aren't brushed on like other paints, but dropped in and left to do their thing as they dry.
would love to have seen what finished pieces looked like
✅
I know this video is very old but how do we keep them from drying up? What can we add to the paints?
You'll want to double check with the manufacturer, but I believe you can thin them with mineral spirits.
Wow--love this stuff!! Do you think it would work well on air-dry clay rather than polymer?? What would you seal it with?? THANKS for this video!
Hi Kathy, glad you like the video! haven't worked with air dry clay, so you'll need to experiment. Really, I was just using polymer to have my own unique surfaces, you can apply the paints to anything you want. They don't need to be sealed.
Thank you for your video. when finish have to use coating?
double dipping into your bottles.
HELP Sandy - the honeycomb ones , hum...I just be doing something wrong. The effect is so tiny, can't hardly make it out. Am I supposed to use the vitral down first, then the prisme ones over it to get cells? Disappointed, but hopefully you can help me.
You should be able to get the effect with the Prismé alone. Stir, stir, then stir some more. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the jar and all the edges.
Two questions: What are you using to stir? What is the viscosity of your paint?
@@SandyHuntress THANK YOU for being so responsive. No, I didn't stir enough ugh...
These are lovely, will you use a vanish on them now? I was wondering what to use, as work I have done in the past on canvas (using these paints) has faded. Any ideas please.
If I add anything, Kathy, it will likely be to top them with resin. They are solvent based paints, so be sure whatever you use is compatible with them. If you check out the Pebeo website, they have color charts which indicate the light-fastness of each color. en.pebeo.com/Mixed-Media/Fantasy-Prisme-Fantasy-Moon
Thank you so much x
Does this paint work if applied thin? Everything i see on it, it's globbed on heavy. Will it still give some of the effects if it were applied thinly, like just brushed on?
No, it really won't give the same effect if brushed on. It's meant to be applied thickly and allowed to self-manipulate into the cells and other effects.
@@SandyHuntress good to know. Kinda what i figured.
Thank you so much I've just brought a small set of Pebeo Prisme fantasy paints. Can they be used on a canvas? Thank you
Depending on the texture of the canvas you will get different results. But as I always say, it's worth experimenting! Happy creating :-)
Hi there, do you have any idea if this paint will adhere to a glassy surface, I thinking fired glazed porcelain earrings like the style you have... do you know ? Thanks for sharing. 🤗🙃🤗🙃🤗🙃🤗🙃🤗🙃🤗🎨
I haven't done enough experimenting with these paints to be sure. I'd suggest you check out the manufacturer's website and also do some testing of your own. Happy creating!
Hello! Can you use this paints on wood?
Hi Maria, that is a good question. I've found these paints work best on a smooth surface. That's when they are best able to do their honeycomb effect. However, you shouldn't let that stop you from trying them on wood or anything else you think of!
Thank you so much! :)
Como se utiliza este producto.
Can I use it with resin؟
Yes! I use Magic Glos UV resin and have had no problems. You'll want to test out other brands, though, they might have different chemical reactions.
Keepsake Crafts by Sandy Huntress thanks for your kind
Can we mix prisme and porcelaine paints
I don't know, Vineeta. I don't know anything about porcelaine paints. The Prismé are solvent based, which means they must be cleaned up with mineral spirits. I wouldn't think a water based paint would be compatible, if that's what the porcelaine are.
You might try experimenting, just to see what happens!
can you use these just to paint things as well
You could, but they are expensive so I think it would be a bit of a waste if you're not going for the unique look.

Well they didn't come out honeycomb.
Do you have these paints, Izstaria? Have you tried them?
