Set of six Marabu acrylic paints supplied in 15 ml dispenser bottles in Black, Blue, Green, Red, White and Yellow. These water-based acrylic colours are formulated for a variety of decorative and craft applications, offering consistent pigmentation and easy handling. The compact boxed set is designed for artists, hobbyists and model makers who need primary and neutral colours in small, convenient quantities for layering, detailing and mixed-media techniques on paper, wood, canvas and suitably primed surfaces.
Advantages
The Marabu acrylic paint set provides smooth, opaque coverage and mixes reliably to create secondary hues. Bottles with precision nozzles allow controlled dispensing for fine details and small-area work, while the water-based formulation cleans easily from brushes and tools when wet. Colours dry to a stable finish that is compatible with common craft materials and can be used in layers for gradual build-up of tone and texture.
Suitable for
- Decorative painting and sign-making on prepared surfaces
- Craft projects such as cardmaking, decoupage and home décor accents
- Model making and miniature painting where small quantities and precision are required
- Mixed-media artwork and sketching where quick-drying acrylics are preferred
- Educational use in workshops and art classes
When it may not be suitable
This set contains basic primary and neutral colours in small 15 ml bottles, which may not be suitable for large-scale paintings or projects that require large volumes of a single colour. For unprimed or non-absorbent substrates, proper surface preparation or a suitable primer is recommended to ensure adhesion and durability. The paints are water-based acrylics and not formulated for professional automotive or industrial coatings.

How to use
Shake bottles gently before use to ensure even pigment distribution. Apply directly from the dispenser for fine lines and details, or transfer to a palette for brush or sponge application. Thin with water for washes or blend several colours on a palette to achieve intermediate shades. Allow each layer to dry before applying additional layers to prevent lifting or unwanted mixing. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.
What to consider before purchase
- Intended project size—small 15 ml bottles are suited to detail work and trials, not large-area coverage
- Surface preparation—ensure porous or glossy surfaces are primed for best adhesion
- Colour mixing needs—this set offers primary colours and white/black for tinting and shading
- Drying time and layering—fast drying speeds up workflow but plan for multiple thin layers when needed
Usage recommendations
For consistent results, work in thin layers and allow full drying between coats. Store bottles upright and tightly closed in a cool, frost-free place. Test adhesion and colour on a scrap of the intended material before applying to the finished project.
