Alvaro’s Caliente Grey is semi-transparent, non-granulating, low staining and has excellent lightfastness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePigments: PBr 7, PB 29, PBk 6 | Series: 2\u003cbr\u003eLightfastness: I – Excellent\u003cbr\u003eTransparency: Semi-Transparent\u003cbr\u003eStaining: 2 – Low Staining\u003cbr\u003eGranulation: Non-Granulating\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DANIEL SMITH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67182426882221,"sku":"743162034239","price":23.79,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0840\/2662\/2125\/files\/33cf66d3-Daniel-Smith-Tube-S2-Alvaros-Caliente-Grey.jpg?v=1791678635","url":"https:\/\/www.paletteartsupplies.com\/products\/daniel-smith-extra-fine-watrecolors-15ml-tube-alvaro-s-caliente-grey-series-2","provider":"PALETTE ART SUPPLIES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
