Tempera paint Cricco CR500/P 500 ml, orange

Cricco tempera paint CR500/P in a 500 ml jar, orange, is a water-based opaque paint formulated for general art and craft use. The paint offers good coverage on absorbent surfaces and dries to a matte finish. It is designed for school projects, hobby crafting and decorative work on paper, cardboard, wood and other porous materials. The formulation is easy to mix with other tempera colours and can be applied with brushes or sponges for broad coverage or finer details.

Advantages

This tempera paint provides uniform, opaque coverage and is water-soluble for easy dilution and cleanup. The 500 ml volume is suitable for classroom activities and medium-sized projects, reducing the need for frequent refills. The matte finish minimizes glare on finished work, and the consistency allows both broad strokes and controlled brushwork. The product is intended for temporary decorative applications and educational use where quick drying and uncomplicated handling are required.

How to use

Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure a uniform colour and consistency. Apply directly from the jar using a suitable brush or sponge; dilute with a small amount of clean water if a thinner consistency or translucent effect is required. For best adhesion on porous surfaces, work on clean, dry substrates. Allow each layer to dry before applying additional coats to avoid lifting or streaking. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

Store in a closed container at room temperature and protect from freezing. For long-term projects or outdoor exposure, consider using a protective varnish or sealing coat once the paint is fully dry. Keep out of reach of small children without supervision and avoid ingestion; in case of accidental contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly with water.
