Troubleshooting

The paint is drying out inside the pot.

Ensure the lid is snapped shut securely after every use and store the pot away from direct heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare for painting, ensure your miniature is primed and base-coated with the appropriate Warhammer Base paint. Before opening the pot, give it a gentle shake to ensure the pigments are properly mixed. Always use a wet palette to help regulate the consistency of the paint and prevent it from drying out on your brush too quickly. After use, ensure the lid is snapped firmly shut to maintain the integrity of the acrylic formula. If the paint becomes too thick, you can add a tiny drop of water or airbrush thinner to return it to its ideal working state.
