How to use
Ensure the working surface is clean, dry and primed if necessary. Shake or knead the tube before use to homogenize the pigment. Apply the paint directly from the tube or dilute slightly with water for washes; avoid adding solvents. For thicker texture or impasto effects use a palette knife or apply multiple layers once each layer is dry. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use. Allow painted items to dry fully before handling or varnishing.
Usage recommendations
For best results, test the ochre shade on a scrap of the intended surface to check opacity and drying time. Use an appropriate primer on porous surfaces to improve adhesion and color stability. When combining with other acrylic media, follow manufacturer directions for ratios to preserve fast-drying properties.
