Acrylic gouache paint SMARTMAX LQX 59 ml — Peach (259)

SMARTMAX LQX acrylic gouache in 59 ml tube, colour Peach (259), is a water-based opaque paint that combines the coverage and matte finish of traditional gouache with the durability and quick drying properties of acrylics. Designed for consistent pigmentation and lightfast colour, this paint provides even, smooth coverage on paper, illustration board and primed surfaces. The Peach shade delivers warm, pastel tones useful for subtle highlights, skin tones, and design accents in both fine art and applied projects.

Advantages

This acrylic gouache offers fast drying times and a matte, non-reflective finish that preserves tonal subtleties. It is reworkable while wet, allowing blending and corrections during the painting session, and becomes water-resistant once fully cured. The formulation provides good opacity and coverage, enabling efficient layering with fewer coats. The 59 ml tube format is practical for studio use and portable for sketching, workshops and field work.

How to use

Shake or squeeze the tube and dispense a small amount onto a palette. Apply with brushes, palette knives or pens for detail work. Thin the paint with clean water for transparent washes or use it straight from the tube for full opacity. Allow layers to dry between applications to avoid lifting previous layers; while the paint is wet it can be blended or softened with water. After complete drying and curing, the surface will be less sensitive to water.

Usage recommendations

For best results, work on properly sized and primed supports and use quality brushes for smooth application. Test colour mixing on scrap paper before applying to the final work. Clean tools with water immediately after use. Store tubes in a cool, dry place with caps tightly closed to preserve pigment quality.
