Holbein Watercolor Summer Set of 12 -G752
- Lightfastness & Pigment Quality: The pigments are chosen for strong colour density, saturation, and good lightfast ratings. Holbein emphasizes that the paints are made with “excellent light-fast ratings.”
- Excellent Coverage & Matte Finish: Gouache dries to a matte finish; strong hiding power (i.e., can cover underlying layers well) is one of the prominent traits.
- Handling Qualities: Good brush response, reliable flow / re-wetting, no cracking or bleeding when layered.
- No whitening agents are added.
- This means the opacity comes from pigment load rather than additives, leading to more reliable mixing behaviour and less risk of “milky” or dull mixtures.
