Artequipment Amsterdam Expert Series acrylic tube paint in Cadmium Red Medium 314 (20 ml) is a professional-quality acrylic colour formulated for fine art, illustration and mixed-media techniques.

Its 20 ml format is convenient for artists who require reliable colour performance in smaller quantities, whether for studies, plein air work or studio details.

Advantages

This Cadmium Red Medium delivers high tinting strength and good covering power while maintaining smooth brushability and predictable drying behaviour. The acrylic formulation provides colour permanence and compatibility with other acrylics from the same series. The tube format preserves paint freshness, allows controlled dispensing and minimises waste during fine-detail work.

Suitable for

• Fine art painting and portrait details
• Illustration and mixed-media pieces
• Layering, glazing and scumbling techniques
• Plein air studies and colour sketches
• Accurate colour matching and small-format projects

Key specifications

• Colour: Cadmium Red Medium (warm red tone)
• Volume: 20 ml tube
• Formulation: Acrylic emulsion
• Finish: Semi-opaque to opaque depending on thickness
• Drying: Fast-drying typical of acrylic media
• Application: Brush, palette knife, airbrush (when suitably thinned)

How to use

Shake or stir gently before use if required, then squeeze a small amount onto a palette. Apply directly with a brush or knife; for glazing and transparent washes, thin the paint with appropriate acrylic medium or water in controlled amounts. Allow each layer to dry before applying subsequent layers to avoid unwanted lifting. Clean brushes and tools with water while the paint is wet; cured acrylic is water-resistant.

Usage recommendations

Store the tube in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly closed to preserve consistency. For extended colour permanence and optimal gloss, consider using archival acrylic varnish after the painting is fully cured. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent accelerated fading.
