About Rosco Supersaturated
Rosco Supersaturated Paint is a highly pigmented acrylic paint, uniquely formulated to be diluted with water, and a flexible paint for fabric.
Paints can be diluted from 1:1, for deep colours and opaque applications, through to 15:1 (water:paint), for shading techniques and translucent colour effects. This makes large scale scenic painting easy, in theatre, as a TV paint, or as a video paint.
It is a flexible vinyl paint, making it the ideal solution for painting backdrops for photography or theatre onto a flexible surface that will become subject to folding or rolling.
The most pure pigment content of all Rosco paints, Supersaturated is available in over 30 colours, from Cerulean Blue to Velour Black, all of which can be mixed to give predictable results. Colours remain consistent under changing light conditions, on camera, when used as film paint for set design, or under stage lights, for theatre paint. Rosco Supersaturated is versatile paint for any artists kit.

Specifications
| Finish | Flat / Matte |
| Solvent | Water |
| Binder | Vinyl Acrylic Co-Polymer |
| Dilution | Dilute at least 1:1 with water, Rosco Clear Acrylic Glaze or a combination of the two as necessary. Diluting will reduce the colour concentration and create "glaze" effects. Diluting with more than 5 parts water may reduce binder strength. Add in Rosco Clear Acrylic Glaze to restore adhesion and flexibility. |
| Surface Preparation | Surfaces should be clean, dry and free from dirt and grease. Prime porous surfaces, except fabrics, using Rosco Tough Prime. If painting a new plaster surface, prime wall with a commercial primer/sealer designed for raw plaster. Then use Rosco Tough Prime as a final preparation. |
| Application | Stir contents well before each use. Apply by brush, roller, or spray gun. Apply in thin uniform coats, using a good quality brush or roller. Use overlapping strokes, keeping a wet edge. Change roller direction often to avoid patterns and streaking. |
| Film Thickness | 1:1 Dilution = 1.5 mil. Dry Film |
| Coverage | 3:1 Dilution = Approx. 300 sq. ft. per gallon (28 sq. m. per 3.79L), depending on substrate, application tool and film thickness. |
| Avg. Dry Time | At 75°F (24°C). Dries to the touch in 30-45 minutes. Can be recoated in 1-2 hours. |
| Clean-up | Soap and water. |
| Shelf Life | Minimum shelf life for unopened, sealed paint is approximately 24 months when stored in a temperature controlled location. |
| Cautions: Do not apply when surface or air temperatures are below 50°F (10°C). Keep from freezing. Avoid prolonged contact with skin or breathing of spray. Do not take internally. Use adequate ventilation. Keep out of reach of children. |
