FAQs
Can I use Pebeo Porcelaine 150 on plastics or metal?
No, Pebeo Porcelaine 150 is specifically designed for porcelain, ceramic, glass, and earthenware. It is not suitable for use on plastics or metal surfaces.
How long does the paint need to dry before baking?
The paint should air dry for a minimum of 24 hours before baking to ensure proper adhesion and prevent cracking or bubbling during the heat-setting process.
Can I paint over a design if I make a mistake?
Yes, if the paint is still wet, you can wipe away mistakes with a damp cloth and reapply. If the paint has dried, it is more difficult to remove without damaging the surface or underlying layers.
Is the paint food safe?
Pebeo Porcelaine 150 is not considered food safe for direct contact with food or beverages. It is suitable for decorative purposes on the exterior of items that will not directly touch consumables.
What is the difference between bright and matte finishes?
The 'bright' finish provides a glossy, vibrant look, while the 'matte' finish offers a non-reflective, satin appearance. The specific lavender blue in this product may be available in either finish, or can be altered with additives or by mixing with matte mediums.
Can I mix Pebeo Porcelaine 150 colors together?
Yes, all colors within the Pebeo Porcelaine 150 range are intermixable, allowing you to create a wider spectrum of custom colors.
What is the recommended oven type for baking?
A conventional home oven is recommended. Ensure it can maintain a steady temperature of 150°C (300°F). Do not use a microwave or convection oven with a fan that might interfere with even heating.
Troubleshooting
Paint is not adhering well.
Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and degreased before painting. For porous materials, an initial coat of clear Porcelaine 150 may be necessary.
Color looks dull after baking.
Ensure the correct baking temperature and time were used. The paint needs to reach 150°C for 35 minutes for optimal curing.
Design washes off after baking.
The item was likely not baked correctly. Verify the oven temperature and duration. Re-bake if necessary, ensuring the paint is fully cured.
Uneven application or brush marks are visible.
Apply paint in thin, even coats. Consider using a sponge or stencil for a smoother finish, or use a softer brush for application. Ensure paint is adequately stirred.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the surface to be decorated is clean, dry, and free from grease. For best results on porous surfaces like earthenware, apply a base coat of Pebeo Porcelaine 150 (clear) and let it dry before applying colors.
Compatibility: This paint is specifically formulated for use on porcelain, ceramic, glass, and earthenware. It is not intended for direct contact with food.
Care: After application, allow the paint to air dry for a minimum of 24 hours. To permanently fix the design, bake the decorated item in a conventional oven at 150°C (300°F) for 35 minutes.
