How to use

Shake or stir the paint before use to ensure homogeneous pigment distribution. Apply directly with brushes, palette knives or other tools; thin with water for washes or blend with acrylic mediums to adjust drying time, transparency and texture. Allow each layer to dry before applying subsequent layers to avoid unwanted mixing. Clean tools and work surfaces with water while the paint is wet; dried residues can be removed mechanically or with appropriate solvents designed for acrylics.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results on canvas or panels, prime the surface with an acrylic gesso. When working with glazing or extended blending, mix with a slow-drying acrylic medium to prolong open time. Store the tube upright in a cool, dry place and reseal the cap tightly after use to preserve consistency and prevent skin formation.
