How to use

Activate the pans by moistening a brush with clean water and swiping it across the chosen color until pigment transfers. Apply washes or layered strokes on appropriate paper, rinsing the brush between colors to avoid unintended mixing. Allow each wash to dry before applying additional transparent layers to control intensity and avoid paper buckling. Store the set dry after use to preserve pan integrity.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a soft round watercolor brush and medium-weight watercolor paper (at least 200 g/m²) to reduce buckling and achieve smoother washes. Rinse the brush thoroughly when changing colors and close or store the tray in a dry place to extend usability of the remaining pans.
