Troubleshooting
Colors appear dull on paper
Ensure you are using enough water to fully activate the pigment and apply to thick, absorbent watercolor-specific paper.
Colors are bleeding into each other in the case
Wipe the excess water off the surface of the dry paint pods with a clean paper towel after use, and leave the case open until the paints are fully dry.
Paint is difficult to wash off hands
Use warm water and a mild soap; for stubborn pigment, a soft sponge can help exfoliate the paint from skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the paints is as simple as opening the case and preparing a small cup of water. To maintain the longevity of your pods, always allow the paint surfaces to air-dry completely before closing the lid to prevent mold or unwanted color bleeding. If the mixing palette becomes heavily stained, wipe it down with a damp cloth or rinse it under warm water. When transporting the set, ensure the case is fully snapped shut to prevent internal movement of the brush. While the paints are washable, it is recommended to wash hands after use and protect porous surfaces like unfinished wood with a mat.
