Pébéo Studio Acrylics sets 12 ml

Pébéo Studio Acrylics is a water-based acrylic paint with a thick consistency for brush marks, palette-knife work and mixed media. Colours dry to a matt to satin finish and form an indelible paint film. Work on canvas, board, wood or metal and try adhesion and appearance on your own surface first.

Mix and paint

Make three columns on a test surface: a pure colour, a mixture of two colours and the same mixture with white. Start with primary yellow, cyan and magenta and record the tubes and mixing ratio. Compare dry colour, coverage and sheen. The set contains both opaque and transparent colours, so do not expect every tube to behave alike.

Apply with a brush or palette knife and work with small amounts on a palette. Surface drying is around 30 minutes to an hour; complete drying can take one to eight days, depending on layer thickness. Check a test layer before overpainting or varnishing. A dry surface does not mean a thick layer is dry throughout.

Drying, cleaning and safe use

Clean brushes with warm water and soap while paint is still wet; wipe off excess paint first. Follow tube labels, ventilate your workspace, avoid eye contact and use eye protection where splashes are possible and suitable gloves for prolonged skin contact. Keep paint out of reach of children and do not eat, drink or smoke while working. Wash your hands and keep paint residues out of drains and the environment.

You receive one selected paint set; brushes, palette, palette knife and painting surface are needed separately. Explore our acrylic paints for colour studies and different painting techniques.
