Does not work as advertised

I bought this to apply to watercolors and to test the colors before putting it on paper. The pigment crumbled and disappointed. I have it with Mr. Clean and it allowed me to paint with pearl free pigment.

Pros
  • Pick up
Cons
  • Requires socket

GREAT FOR ARTISTS - Helps visualize watercolor corrections without painting on toilet paper.

Seems to work pretty well. I tried regular acetate and the watercolor just dripped off it. It takes a few seconds to stick to them. If I put a watercolor painting on the table and then put this sheet on top of it, I have a chance to draw possible fixes to see if they work before I paint the watercolor. and destroy it. This will be a very useful tool in my studio. You can paint on both sides, and when you're done, wipe it off with a damp cloth. The colors of the phthalos stain it, so avoid them.

Pros
  • STRENGTH: Grafix Dura-Lar Wet Media Film is engineered to give you the best performance of Mylar and Acetate. This film does not crack, does not absorb moisture and does not discolour over time.
Cons
  • I'll add later

Ideal for sketching with oil paints

Duralar sheets are a relatively inexpensive artboard for sketching and drawing ideas. It picks up oil paints fairly decently, but has a bit of a tendency to pick up fingerprints. If it's a super smooth surface, almost like painting on glass, it's very useful for those who do more illustrative design. It should be noted that artists who prefer more traditional color approaches will paint the surface with lighter colors, however creating tinted surfaces is quite difficult and artists should be…

Pros
  • MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS: This film is treated on both sides to work with water-based mediums, markers and inks. Excellent for planning picture compositions, as a drawing or engraving background.
Cons
  • Not as thick as other
