FAQs

What pigments are in Majestic Purple?+
PB29 (ultramarine blue) and PR170 (naphthol red), rated ASTM I.
How do I make a warmer purple?+
Add a little Quinacridone Magenta to Majestic Purple for a warmer, richer purple.
Does acrylic paint dry darker?+
Slightly. Wet acrylic looks lighter because the binder is milky; as it dries the film turns clear and the colour deepens a little. Mix a touch lighter than your target if you are matching colours.
How do I keep acrylic paint fresh in a jar?+
Scoop out only what you need with a clean palette knife, wipe the rim and close the lid tightly. This keeps air out and stops the paint skinning over.

Lightfast & Archival Quality

Lightfastness refers to a pigment's resistance to fading or colour change when exposed to light - a critical factor for archival artwork. Durable acrylic films combined with stable artist pigments help ensure artworks retain their true colour balance and integrity for years under normal display conditions.
