(Your kit should include a small jar of petroleum jelly to coat the threads of your paint tubes so they seal without closing.)

The only small wet palette I've found so far and it works!

It appears to be made by the Sta-wet boys and works just as well as their products. But this unit is smaller and that was a big plus for the small pochade kit I made. I have a larger Sta-wet that works great too. The difference here is that Sta-wet comes with a sponge and several palette sheets, while Guerrilla doesn't have either. You get a plastic case and that's it. Easy to fix with available sponges and parchment paper, or you can buy a commercial upgrade from Sta-wet if you like. general…

  • Good product for the price

In terms of durability, I've never had an issue with this palette. To set it up I cut out a damp sponge, boiled the same brand of paper
