Frequently asked questions

Why does every mix with it turn blue?
Because phthalo pigment has extreme tinting strength. Add it on the tip of the brush rather than in drops – a single drop can take over a whole palette.

Is it a good general-purpose blue?
Yes, and it covers very well. If you are buying only one blue, buy this one – almost everything else can be mixed from it.

How do I thin this paint?
With water or an Ionic thinner. The formula is self-hydrating, so it stays workable on the palette far longer than ordinary acrylics – a drop is enough for brush work, and roughly 1 : 1 for airbrush.

Is the finish really matt?
Yes, it dries matt with no shiny patches. If the figure is going on the gaming table, seal it with a matt varnish at the end.

The full range is in the Ionic Smart Colors category.
