All Paints are Comprised of 3 Main Elements:
- Binder
- Minerals
- Solvent
When the term water-based is used to define a product, water is the solvent. It dries from within and cures over a 21-28 day period of time. Fusion™ is comprised of only natural minerals and carbon which create the vivid depth of colour you will experience with our product. Minerals, in a scientific sense, are inorganic compounds found naturally in the earth. In terms of paint, the three minerals most commonly used are titanium dioxide, iron oxides and calcium carbonate.
Natural Pigments in Fusion™ Mineral Paint
Using these materials, mined from the earth (minerals), we create the pigments in our colour collection. Through our extensive research and development, we have developed a formulation free of fillers that are common to our competitors. Titanium dioxide is the whitening pigment in the paint.
It is also the most expensive ingredient that competitors rarely add enough of, resulting in poor coverage, meaning more coats, protective layers and time are required to achieve the desired result.

High Quality, Natural Products
Our products are made up of only the highest quality materials that are 100 % locally sourced. In creating Fusion™, we have exclusively used natural minerals and pigments. As is the case with any natural product, there is a tendency toward minor variations. You may notice that sometimes when painting with our product, there is an odd streak of pigment that appears. This is not due to defects, but due to the beauty of working with natural products and simply working it into the paint will cause it to disappear, resulting in a uniform finish.
The binder is the last element and the 2nd most expensive ingredient in the manufacturing of paint. Binder is one of the most important ingredients in paint. It is the “glue” so to speak and results in the best adhesion and long-term durability.
Beautiful distressing is achieved with Fusion™ Mineral Paint.
Fusion™ is made up of 100% acrylic resin and is unlike any other product on the market. This results in one consistent and cohesive surface across your piece. So what exactly does that mean?
It is a waterproof, non-porous surface which is why you do not need a top coat for water permanency! Using 100% acrylic binder results in the strongest adhesion and durability once cured.

Non-Toxic Paint
Many other paints on the market do not use 100% acrylic, therefore lowering the quality of the product by including inexpensive fillers such as vinyl or latex, some of which are highly toxic materials. Fusion™ is also free of many other chemicals commonly used in other lines of paint, such as ammonia or formaldehyde.
