I'm looking for more of a gray look than white. Can this kit do that, or no?

Yes. The base coat is black so you can leave some of the black exposed or you can mix the white with a grey or black acrylic paint craft paint that you get at hobby supply store. I'm mixed mine with acrylic hobby paint and it came out perfect. I finished in October and it's still perfect not a chip.

I have a 27 sq ft countertop and I purchased the white. It's definitely more grey than white to me.

I think it depends on your artistic ability and skill level. The kit comes with three colors of paint (pearl mica, inca gold, and white limestone) that you blend together with a sponge. The pearl mica is a pearlescent gray, so theoretically you could use more of that and maybe the white and not so much of the gold to get the effect you're after. And there's a base coat of black primer that you can have peak through to add to it. It's meant to have a mottled look like granite though, so if you're after a more solid look than I don't think it would work for you.

Yes, you would just use less of the white colored mineral. There are 3 different colored mineral paints, you can use more or less of one of the colors. I was going for a grey color as well and was happy with the results.

Not with the kit alone. You can buy any acrylic paint and add it in that's what I did.

Yes, it's customizable as to how light or dark you want the end result to be. Also, if you layer the minerals while they are still wet, you will end up with gray areas where the white and black mix together (but dab the sponge, don't smear!).

I would say no. The kit comes with 2 shades of white and gold. It might be possible to mix black paint with the white to get gray?

you would still need to bleach, this would also help to tone out any yellow in the gray

Gray is special order so it takes longer. Yes it is available in most materials.

no. My mom uses the gray/silver and she loves it. I can totally see a difference when she has it on

The background is gray. I too, thought it was white. No, it is distinctly gray.

No it isnt transparent amd i think it is better look that way. Not so sure if it would look as good as white bit gray should be fine.

The colloidal silver that I make with this kit comes out somewhat white colored- or clear with a hazy white cast to it. It is a fantastic kit and I make CS weekly with it!!

I agree with Mariano, and there are many variations of "White Paper" with different brightness levels. The DGK is consistent. I personally use the neutral gray. The two ways I know to use it are to shoot ir close up and then use your camera's custom WB to set the WB, or shoot in RAW and put the DGK in a sample shot at the start and again any time your light changes and batch adjust your WB in a program like Lightroom or Aperture.

I would think doubtful for the Fair kit....very vanilla and light cream colors.

The kit comes with a spare mixing bottle that has a colour mixing guide on it for purple, green, orange, etc. You can water the colours down too to get a lighter shade ... hope this helps!

Yes, although you will only see some increased gloss and maybe very fine haze/scratch removal on white. The polishing oils will deepen darker colors but have no real optical effect on white.

It probably depends on what color gray you put next to it. There are so many shades of gray.

It's a good idea to rebleach to white if possible to get the full vibrancy of color. Remember to condition!

I have the gray. It is not white, it's softer....more cream. It looks like the black and cream is the same way. Mine looks exactly like the enlarged photo.

We have white and it looks great. The gray in this bedding has a slight tan to it so you might be challenged to match the grey on grey crib

No I used the one for grey but I am sure they would have something to work with your color

If the grey is a light enough color it would definitely work. Even if the blue got on the black, it would probably just give the black a blueish tint when it goes into the light :)
