Jacquard - Piñata Color Claro Extender
Dilute Piñata inks to softer hues while maintaining their brilliant glow
Claro Extender thins Piñata inks without the unpredictable spread that straight alcohol creates. You maintain control over value and transparency shifts, building gradual color transitions instead of watching pigment race across your surface in uncontrolled blooms. The formulation matches Piñata's alcohol base, so diluted colors behave consistently, no separation, no uneven drying that compromises your layers.
This extender becomes essential when working light-to-dark or creating atmospheric effects on Yupo, glass, or metal. Extend highly saturated Piñata colors into pale washes for backgrounds, then layer back to intensity where you need it. The transparent quality preserves luminosity even at significant dilution ratios, unlike white additives that deaden color. For airbrushing applications, Claro achieves proper spray viscosity while maintaining pigment suspension throughout your reservoir.
Professional alcohol ink artists keep this on hand for precise color mixing and technique work. Dilute intense Piñata hues for subtle undertones, create custom tints that remain vibrant, or thin colors for fine detail work with technical pens. Claro integrates seamlessly with your existing Piñata palette, extending possibilities without adding variables to your process.
