Daler-Rowney Graduate oil paint 38 ml

Practise colour mixing and brushwork

You receive one 38 ml metal tube with a screw cap in your chosen colour. Graduate Oil is smooth, mixable oil paint for studies, painting classes and your own pictures. Use it straight from the tube for visible brushmarks or work with a palette knife for raised texture. The normal finish is low-gloss satin; copper, silver and the gold colours give a metallic effect.

Build your palette

Choose by colour number and name. The three primaries 120, 540 and 675 provide a useful starting point for mixing exercises; add white for lighter tints. Opacity varies by colour. Names marked hue describe an imitated colour, including cobalt blue and cadmium shades. Colour swatches show full colour and a tint; appearance also depends on your screen, lighting and film thickness.

Medium, surface and drying

Paint on a surface prepared for oils, such as primed canvas or panel. Use a suitable oil medium if you need to adjust handling. Graduate Oil can be mixed with other Daler-Rowney oil colours. Allow around five days to dry under usual conditions; thicker layers and some colours may need longer. A surface-dry layer is not automatically fully cured. This is not water-mixable oil paint. Brushes, palette knife and medium are not included.

Safe use and cleanup

Zinc Mixing White 001 and Titanium White 009: toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects. Avoid release to the environment and collect spills. Dispose of paint residues and packaging under local rules. Follow the colour, medium and cleaner labels, and provide good ventilation when using solvents.
