You paint miniatures with acrylics and your paint constantly dries out on the palette. You create color mixes and need them to last throughout the entire session without remixing. You paint in a warm or dry environment where evaporation is a major issue. You want a high-quality affordable wet palette that includes a generous supply of refills (50 sheets) from day one. This is NOT for you if... You use enamels oils or non-acrylic paints It is strictly designed for acrylics. You need a much larger workspace for batch-painting many figures at once. You prefer disposable or ceramic palettes and don't mind paint drying quickly. Frequently Asked Questions about the Wet Palette How long do the paper sheets last? Each sheet can last for several painting sessions. When the paint starts to oversaturate the paper or the surface begins to pill or tear its time for a replacement. With 50 sheets included you're set for many sessions. Are they mold-resistant? Yes. The Green Stuff World Wet Palette features Sanitized treatment which significantly delays the appearance of mold for months. While not permanentsince water changes and high temperatures reduce effectivenessproper care (drying between long breaks and changing the water) will extend its lifespan. Using official refills every 68 months helps restore protection. Can I leave the paint in it overnight? Yes. With the lid closed and the elastic band secured the paint can stay moist for days or even weeks. Most painters resume their work the next day without issues as long as the sponge remains damp. Does it work for airbrushing? No. This palette is designed for brush painting and standard acrylic paints. Airbrushing requires different thinning ratios where hydrating paint is unnecessary. Can dry brush paint be put on a wet palette? No for dry brushing a dry brush palette is recommended because the technique requires a more controlled paint load and less moisture to avoid ruining the effect. What paper should be used for a wet palette? Green Stuff World's semi-permeable parchment paper is specifically designed for wet palettes. It allows moisture from the sponge to pass through but not so much that the paint turns into soup. If the paper is too thick or too absorbent the paint may dry too quickly or dilute unevenly. Can a wet palette be used with contrast paints? No the extra moisture from a wet palette can dilute the formula and alter its behavior. Dipping Inks are designed to be used directly from the pot. Does the wet palette dilute the paint? Yes it can dilute it slightly but its main goal is to keep the paint fresh for hours. If you need to dilute the paint further add distilled water a medium or a thinner. How much water should be put in? Just enough to dampen the sponge but without leaving free-standing water on the paper's surface. You can use your fingers to spread the water evenly across the palette and ensure you don't overdo it. How to clean the wet palette sponge? Wash it in the sink with lukewarm water and mild soap rinsing it by hand several times to flush out any paint residue. If necessary gently scrape off any cured acrylic paint.
