Acrylic paint set Artequipment Amsterdam 17820524 — 20 ml tubes, assorted soft colors

Artequipment Amsterdam acrylic paint set (24 x 20 ml) contains a balanced pastel palette suitable for soft, subtle artwork. The set is part of the Amsterdam Standard Series, a water-based acrylic line formulated for smooth application, good lightfastness and durable flexible paint film. Tubes allow precise dispensing and easy mixing for layering, glazing and detail work.

Advantages

The paints have a medium viscosity that preserves visible brush strokes and texture while providing smooth coverage with a satin finish. Formulated with high-quality, lightfast pigments and a 100% acrylic resin binder, the paint dries to a permanent, waterproof film. The water-based, odorless formula can be used straight from the tube or thinned with water or acrylic medium.

Suitable for

• Fine art and canvas painting
• Illustration and detail work
• Crafts and mixed-media projects
• School and educational activities

When it may not be suitable

This set focuses on pastel and soft shades and may not provide the saturated, intense colors required for bold or high-contrast work. For large exterior applications or non-porous surfaces without priming, a specialist exterior or adhesion primer may be required.

Key specifications

• Contents: 24 tubes × 20 ml each in a pastel color range including titanium and zinc whites, various roses, lilac, blues, greys, greens and yellows
• Medium viscosity; satin finish
• Binder: 100% acrylic resin
• Water-based and odorless; becomes waterproof when dry
• High-quality, lightfast pigments
• Adheres to slightly porous surfaces such as canvas, paper, cardboard, wood, stone and cement

How to use

Squeeze paint directly from the tube onto a palette or surface and apply with brushes, palette knives or other tools. Use neat for opaque coverage or thin with water or an acrylic medium to increase transparency for glazing and layering. Allow each layer to dry before applying the next to achieve clean glazes and prevent cracking; fully dried paint is waterproof.

What to consider before purchase

• Set contains pastel/soft colors rather than vivid primary hues
• Intended for indoor fine art, craft and educational use; not formulated as exterior house paint
• Surface should be slightly porous or primed for best adhesion

Usage recommendations

For best results, prime non-absorbent supports, work in thin layers when glazing, and store tubes capped in a cool, dry place. Combine colors from the set to create subtle gradients and soft atmospheres characteristic of pastel palettes.
