Acrylic paint set KREUL el Greco — 6 colours (Black, Blue, Green, Red, White, Yellow), 75 ml tubes, gloss

The KREUL el Greco Acrylic paint set includes six gloss-finish colours — Black, Blue, Green, Red, White and Yellow — each in a 75 ml tube. These water-based artist acrylics are highly pigmented, fast-drying and form a waterproof, elastic film when dry. They can be applied with brushes or spatulas onto canvas, painting cardboard, paper or wooden boards and are suitable for opaque, glazed and pastose painting techniques.

Advantages

Highly pigmented and luminous colours deliver strong coverage and bright tones. Fast drying and water-based formula makes layering and glazing easy, while the dried paint becomes waterproof and elastic. The 75 ml tubes allow controlled dispensing for mixing, detail work and economical use in both fine art and hobby projects.

Suitable for

• Canvas painting
• Painting on wooden panels and painting cardboard
• Paper-based art and craft projects
• Opaque, glazed and pastose techniques
• Layering, blending and detail work

When it may not be suitable

These gloss acrylics are formulated for artists and hobbyists working on absorbent or primed rigid supports; they may not be ideal for unprimed textiles or materials that require special adhesion primers. For large outdoor murals or constant exposure to weather, further protective varnishing or professional exterior-grade products may be needed.

Key specifications

• Colours: Black, Blue, Green, Red, White, Yellow
• Finish: Gloss
• Volume per tube: 75 ml
• Binder type: Water-based acrylic (forms elastic, waterproof film when dry)
• Application tools: Brush or spatula

How to use

Apply directly from the tube onto a primed canvas, painting cardboard, paper or wooden board using a brush or spatula. For glazing, dilute slightly with water or an appropriate acrylic medium; for pastose effects use the paint undiluted and apply thickly with a palette knife. Allow layers to dry between applications to avoid unwanted mixing. Finish with a varnish if additional protection or altered sheen is required.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended support: ensure canvas, board or paper is suitably primed where necessary
• Finish preference: gloss sheen may affect final appearance and lighting
• Volume needs: 75 ml tubes are practical for studio and hobby use but consider larger sizes for extensive projects

Usage recommendations

Store tubes capped and upright in a cool place; clean brushes with water immediately after use. For increased durability on frequently handled or exposed works, apply a compatible varnish after full curing.
