Troubleshooting
Paint feels dry and difficult to rewet
Ensure the tube cap is sealed tightly when not in use. If paint has dried on the palette, use a slightly larger amount of water and a damp brush to reactivate it.
Color appears less vibrant than expected
Apply a thicker layer of paint or multiple layers (glazing) to build up intensity. Ensure you are using enough pigment relative to water.
Paint has a gritty texture
This is uncommon for finely milled pigments. Ensure you are rewetting with clean water and not mixing with abrasive materials.
