Distemper paint is formed by mixing whiting (fine chalk), hide derived glue, water and pigment. Soft distemper as it is called is applied warm onto internal wall or ceiling surfaces and produces a durable soft sheen finish which tightens as it cools. It is both a paint and if mixed stiffer a form of filler. Traditionally this was used as the finish for lime and earthen plaster. Many people have a low opinion of distemper paint as they see it as dusty and flakey. However the paint may well be over a hundred years old by this point so it is to be expected that it is showing signs of age. The process for preparing distemper is to soak crystals of hide glue in a measured quantity of water overnight. This is then warmed just before use in a water bath or heated glue pot (much as you would melt chocolate in a bowl sitting in water) The whiting is then gently and gradually stirred in to avoid lumps forming. Pigment can also be added at this point. Once prepared the mixture can be adjusted to produce a more liquid mix or a more chalky mix by adding a little more of the relevant material. Measures should be used so that once the correct quantities have been established they can be repeated consistently.
