Liquitex Professional Acrylic Gouache, 2-oz (59ml) Bottle, Ultramarine Blue (Red Shade)

This product is great! One thing to know before you start using it is mix it with a droplet of water for smoother and cleaner results.

I love these. First is how deeply pigmented they are. You can get very rich tones. Sometimes I use gac along with water to thin them like I would any acrylic paint. I don’t know that’s the recommended approach, but I know if I want to thin them quite a lot it works well. They are easy to mix without the colors getting muddy.Second is the drying time. It strikes a nice balance. I can certainly use it in an art journal, and usually do, without any worry about Joe long I need to wait for it to dry, but I can work with it to get a smooth layer and good blending without it drying too fast.Third is how well it handles straight out of the bottle no water added. I use this to paint bookbinding boards for covers, especially for things like Coptic binding. I don’t want to use water to avoid warping as much as possible. This does a great job there.The only real issue I have with these is the cap. It’s easy to mess up and get the entire cap off not just the lid. I did that once and instead of extruding a small amount of paint through the little funnel tube, it plopped half the bottle on the floor. It’s not a stopping point, just something to be aware of and careful about.

Best acrilyc gouache brand on the market.

Perfect gold

This is da bomb for filling laser engraving!! Unfortunately the bottle of Bright Silver I received was covered in blue paint from another bottle.

Good color, easy to use

Not a huge fan. I was hoping it would be closer to an artist’s gouache in terms of how matte it is, but it’s really just like a very thick acrylic ink or thin paint. It has sheen, which defeats the entire purpose of gouache for me.

It helps to highlight or correct mistakes, I use it for water color. I love it.
