What are the ingredients in Ultra Bond?

Real Milk Paint® is loved for its natural, porous finish, but on its own, it struggles to stick to slick surfaces like lacquer, glass, or metal. That is where Ultra Bond comes in. If you have a challenging project, understanding the Ultra Bond ingredients will help you see how this additive transforms the chemistry of your paint to ensure a permanent grip.

By utilizing high-performance binding agents, this product allows you to skip the heavy-duty solvent primers and stick with a water-based system that respects your home environment.

The Core Ingredients of Ultra Bond

Our formula is streamlined and effective, focusing on two primary components that ensure maximum adhesion.

1. Acrylic Emulsion

This is the primary active ingredient and the powerhouse of the formula. The acrylic emulsion serves as the binder that acts as a bridge. It allows the natural lime and pigments found in Milk Paint to bond securely to surfaces that would otherwise repel them.

2. Water

Water is utilized as the carrier and solvent for the acrylic. Because it is a water-based product, Ultra Bond mixes seamlessly with Milk Paint once it has been turned into liquid form. This ensures the two products blend without separation, maintaining the paint's signature non-toxic profile.

Safety and Performance Characteristics

Choosing Ultra Bond means you are opting for a high-performance additive that doesn't compromise on safety or aesthetics.

• Low VOC: Because the formula is a water-based acrylic emulsion, it is a low-VOC product. This makes it significantly safer for indoor workshop use compared to traditional solvent-based bonding primers.
• Color Preservation: These ingredients are designed to be transparent. Once mixed, they will not alter the color of your paint, though they may slightly shift the sheen from a flat to a very soft matte.
• Easy Cleanup: Thanks to its water-based nature, any tools used with the mixture can be cleaned up easily with warm, soapy water—just be sure to do so before the product dries.
• Engineered Versatility: The ingredients are specifically engineered to be compatible with the unique chemistry of milk paint, ensuring your finish remains chip-resistant and durable.

Conclusion

If you want to ensure your finish stays put on difficult, non-porous surfaces, Ultra Bond is the essential additive for your toolkit. By utilizing a high-quality acrylic binder, you can achieve professional results on surfaces you never thought you could paint.
