HERLITZ Poster Paint Set contains ten water-based opaque colours, each in a 20 ml tube, designed for poster creation, school art lessons and craft projects. The set provides easy-to-mix pigments that deliver vivid, even coverage on paper, cardboard and similar absorbent surfaces. Water-based formula makes the paints simple to dilute, blend and clean up after use, making them suitable for children, students and hobbyists who work on educational and decorative tasks.
Advantages
The paints are formulated to be opaque and highly coverable, enabling solid colour fields and clear layering. Tubes of 20 ml offer convenient portion control and reduce waste compared with larger containers. Being water-based, the colours mix smoothly and wash from brushes and tools with water. The compact set of ten essential hues supports colour mixing and basic palette work while remaining practical for classroom storage and home use.

How to use
Squeeze a small amount of paint from the tube onto a palette or mixing surface. Apply directly to dry paper or cardboard with a brush; dilute with water to achieve thinner washes or smoother blends. For opaque coverage, use undiluted paint and allow each layer to dry before applying the next. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use. Store tubes capped and in a cool, dry place to preserve consistency.
Usage recommendations
For consistent results on school projects, test colours on a scrap of the same paper before applying to the final piece. Use heavier-weight paper or prepared board for large areas or mixed-media work to avoid buckling. Supervise younger children during use and ensure paint is given adequate drying time between layers.
