Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of paints work best with this wet palette?
A: This portable wet palette is optimized for water-based acrylic paints, which are the standard for miniature painting and model building. The moisture-retaining sponge and paper layers keep acrylic paints workable for extended sessions without drying out on the mixing surface.
Q: How do I clean and maintain the wet palette between painting sessions?
A: Simply remove and rinse the mixing paper, squeeze out the nano sponge, and wipe down the plastic tray. You can replace the paper inserts as needed. Store the palette closed to preserve moisture for your next session. The durable plastic tray is built for repeated long-term use.
Q: What is the difference between the diffusion paper and the aggregated paper?
A: The diffusion paper has high water permeability and a smooth surface ideal for fine detail work, color layering, and wash techniques — great for character models. The aggregated paper is thicker and more durable, best suited for base coating large areas with minimal blending, such as vehicles or sci-fi terrain models.
