Maaleo acrylic paint set contains 24 tubes of 12 ml water-based acrylic paints in a ready assortment of 24 colours. These artist paints are designed for hobbyists, students and creators who need a compact, portable selection of fast-drying, opaque colours suitable for canvas, paper, wood and a variety of craft surfaces. The tube format permits precise dispensing, reduces waste and makes it easy to mix custom shades on a palette.
Advantages
The paints are water-based and fast-drying, allowing layered work and quick handling. High opacity and good coverage help achieve uniform colour fields and reduce the number of applied layers. Tubes provide controlled application and convenient storage, while the 12 ml size is practical for learning, small projects and trialing new techniques. The set includes a balanced range of primary, secondary and neutral tones for mixing and colour blending.

How to use
Shake tubes or knead gently before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution. Squeeze a small amount onto a palette and dilute with water for washes or use directly for thicker, opaque layers. Apply with brushes, palette knives or other tools suitable for acrylics. Allow each layer to dry before applying subsequent layers to avoid unwanted blending; drying time depends on ambient temperature and layer thickness. Clean tools and brushes with water while paint is still wet.
Usage recommendations
For best results on absorbent surfaces, prime with a suitable gesso or primer. Use acrylic medium to extend drying time or modify finish, and varnish finished works with a compatible acrylic varnish to enhance durability and protect the surface.
