SmartMax water-based paint tube Green 14 ml (model VSG832550)

SmartMax water-based paint tube Green 14 ml is a concentrated, opaque gouache-style colour in a small, squeezable tube. Designed for school, design and small art projects, the tube format gives precise control of the amount dispensed and is ready to mix with water for washes or thicker, matt layers. The green shade works well for illustrations, touch-ups and mixed-media use on paper and similar surfaces.

Advantages

This 14 ml water-based paint delivers an opaque, matt finish typical of gouache, allowing for bold, vibrant colour coverage. The tube packaging preserves pigment freshness and enables accurate dosing for fine details or layered application. It mixes easily with water to vary transparency and texture, and is formulated for reliable use in educational and studio settings.

Suitable for

• School art classes and projects
• Illustrations and graphic artworks
• Small gouache-style paintings and touch-ups
• Mixed-media work on paper and card

When it may not be suitable

Because the tube contains a small 14 ml quantity, it may not be suitable as the primary paint supply for large-scale projects or long-term professional production where frequent replacement is impractical. As a water-based gouache-style paint, it is not permanent or fully waterproof once dried and can be reactivated with water, so it may not be appropriate for works requiring permanent water resistance without an additional fixative.

Key specifications

• Colour: Green
• Volume: 14 ml
• Type: Water-based, opaque gouache-style paint

How to use

Squeeze a small amount from the tube onto a palette and mix with water to achieve the desired consistency — more water for transparent washes, less for thick, opaque strokes. Apply with brushes suitable for gouache or acrylics, allowing layers to dry between applications for cleaner overlays. Clean brushes with water immediately after use.

What to consider before purchase

• Pack size (14 ml) relative to project scale
• Opacity and reactivity to water when dry
• Compatibility with chosen supports and media

Usage recommendations

For small illustrations and touch-ups, use sparing amounts from the tube and build colour in thin layers. For richer coverage, apply less-diluted paint and allow drying between layers. Store the tube capped and in a cool place to preserve pigment quality.
