- The mordant prepares the surface of paper or fabric for quick adhesion
of the paint.
A mordant is a chemical that combines with the
paint and fixes it permanently on the paper.
- Wear protective gloves
- Mark one side of the paper
or fabric to be marbled then turn over and sponge the cooled alum solution on
the unmarked side.
-
Any areas that are not treated with alum will
retain no paint.
- The paper should be kept damp but not wet.
The slightly damp paper is easier to lay on the
tray than dry paper.
- Fabric can be dry before printing.
- Construction paper usually does not need to be treated;
all fabric does.
