FAQs
What surfaces can I use Pébéo Fantasy Moon paint on?
You can use it on glass, canvas, metal, mirror, Plexiglas, acetate, plastic, ceramic, wood, and more. For porous surfaces, priming is recommended.
How do I clean up after using this paint?
Clean brushes and tools immediately after use with white spirit or odorless mineral spirits. The dried paint itself should not be cleaned with water or harsh solvents.
Does the paint create a raised texture?
The paint creates a visual hammered effect and a pearlescent finish. While thicker applications can add slight texture, it is not a high-build, sculptural medium.
How long does the paint take to dry?
Thin layers typically dry to the touch in 1-2 hours and are fully dry within 24-48 hours. Thicker applications will require longer drying times.
Can I mix the Fantasy Moon colors with other Pébéo paints?
Yes, the Fantasy Moon colors are designed to integrate with other Pébéo paint ranges, particularly Fantasy Prisme and Vitrail, for mixed media applications.
Is the paint waterproof once dry?
Once fully dry, the paint offers some resistance but is not considered fully waterproof or dishwasher safe. It's best to protect decorated items from prolonged exposure to water.
What is the purpose of the Cerne Relief tubes in the set?
The Cerne Relief tubes (Black and Lead) are used to create outlines or contours, similar to lead lines in stained glass, before applying the Fantasy Moon colors within those defined areas.
Troubleshooting
Paint not drying or remaining tacky
Ensure thin, even layers are applied. Very thick layers can take significantly longer to dry. Avoid applying in humid conditions. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Uneven hammered effect
Shake paint bottles thoroughly before use to ensure pigments are evenly distributed. Experiment with application methods (brush vs. sponge) and layer thickness to achieve desired effect.
Paint not adhering to the surface
Ensure the surface is properly cleaned and degreased. For porous materials like wood or unfinished ceramic, apply a primer or Gesso first. Test on a small, inconspicuous area if unsure about surface compatibility.
Bubbles in the paint film
Avoid over-brushing or vigorous mixing of the paint, as this can introduce air. If bubbles appear, they can sometimes be popped with a fine needle or smoothed out before the paint sets. Ensure good ventilation during drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Ensure your surface is clean, dry, and free of grease. For porous surfaces, apply a layer of Gesso or a suitable primer first. Shake the bottles well before use.
Compatibility: Pébéo Fantasy Moon paint is compatible with most Pébéo paints and mediums, including Fantasy Prisme, Vitrail, and Bindex. It adheres well to glass, canvas, metal, mirror, Plexiglas, acetate, plastic, ceramic, wood, and more.
Care: Allow painted items to dry completely (typically 24-48 hours for thin layers, longer for thick applications) before handling or exposing them to moisture. Clean brushes and tools immediately after use with white spirit or odorless mineral spirits. Once dry, the paint is resistant but should not be considered fully waterproof or dishwasher safe. Avoid abrasive cleaning on decorated surfaces.
