How to use

Shake or stir the individual colour pots before use to ensure even pigment distribution. Apply the paint with brushes, sponges or fingers depending on the desired effect; for thinner washes, mix with a small amount of water. Allow each layer to dry before applying another to avoid unwanted blending. After use, rinse brushes and tools under running water while the paint is still wet. Store the set with lids securely closed and keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Recommendations

Use on primed or absorbent paper and cardboard for best results; test a small area on delicate surfaces. Supervise young children during use and wash hands and clothing promptly to prevent prolonged staining. For longer-lasting colour on display items, consider sealing fully dried paint with a clear, compatible varnish.
