A strong bright red that leans slightly to the red violet part of the color spectrum. Use when you want a painting to lean to the cool side or contain a lot of blue. Perfect for beautiful red violets and purples. Not the best choice for orange mixes. Mix 1:1 with Naphthol Red Light (PR9) for a wonderful all-purpose red.

Heritage MultiMedia Acrylics are a water based non toxic resin acrylic. The binding system contains a 360º coating agent that protects the pigment and improves the overall light-fastness of the color. Dry as needed with a hair dryer and clean up with soap and water.

Heritage MultiSurface Sealer and Varnishes contain UV inhibitors to further protect surfaces. This is especially important when working with delicate papers in decoupaged designs.

For Acrylic techniques, use with water. Out of the tube, they have an approximate drying time of 20 minutes depending on the humidity level in a room.

For Global techniques (oil emulation), use with Extender Medium. By evaporating the water out of the paint and replacing it with Extender you can add hours to the drying time.
