I'm struggling rather a lot with my own binder recipe, which leads me to wonder if there is a good quality, consistent and reliable pre-made binder out there that anyone might recommend? I just don't have the time at the moment to keep making batches and struggling with them providing different results, one even got moldy after the first use and I have no idea why.
Many thanks!
Also, I have tried Schmincke's which I do like but it never seems to dry down for me.
First time I got my hands on some pigments I used the “Winsor & Newton” pre made binder and it worked like a charm. I kept in the fridge for the impressive length of like 6 months and it was still good as new. I didn’t try any other brand but I feel this could be a good try!
From memory, I'm pretty sure I started out using the winsor & Newton one if that helps. It's just gum Arabic and water I think?
Oh just remembered that kremer sell pre made binder too. I use their gum Arabic powder and it's very high quality. 👍🏻👍🏻
