Gouache paint Talens ROY-08241002, White, 50 ml tube

Talens ROY-08241002 white gouache in a 50 ml tube is an opaque, water-based paint formulated for illustration, design work, school projects and mixed-media applications. The paint delivers solid coverage and is suitable for precise colour application and layering on paper, board and primed surfaces. Packaged in a squeezable tube, the product is convenient for controlled dispensing and small-scale studio use.

Advantages

This white gouache offers high opacity and smooth consistency, allowing even, matte coverage over coloured backgrounds. Its water-based formulation makes it easy to thin for washes or to apply straight from the tube for full hiding power. The tube packaging preserves unused paint and enables accurate dosing for detailed work. It is compatible with other water-based media and layers well when used on appropriate substrates.

How to use

For opaque coverage, apply directly from the tube with a brush or palette knife and spread evenly across the surface. To create washes or thinner layers, dilute the paint gradually with water and test on a spare piece of paper until the desired translucency is reached. Allow each layer to dry before applying additional layers to prevent reactivation and ensure clean edges. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

Store the tube with the cap tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When working on delicate papers, test adhesion and drying behavior on a scrap to avoid warping; use a primed surface for heavier layering. For archival results, use lightfast and compatible media for underlayers and consider varnishing the finished work on suitable substrates if long-term protection is required.
