CITT Alberta has arranged for Jenny Knott, a Paint Product Manager at Rosco Labs, to come and help us explore Rosco’s coating products over 2 days.
-
For Part 1, Jenny will discuss each of the 4 coating products features, advantages and benefits while passing around finished samples of each product. After the presentation, roll up your sleeves and get ready to get messy with a mini project for each coating product (Flexbond, Foamcoat, Flexcoat and CrystalGel) for you to take home.
-
Part 2 will be devoted to making a stained glass window using Rosco clear products – CrystalGel, Flexbond Glue, Premiere Clear and Clear Acrylic Glaze. Compare and contrast the effects of each product on your plexiglass creation.
