Review on 24-Well Airtight Paint Palette Box For Watercolor, Gouache, Acrylic And Oil - Keeps Paints Wet For Storage by Sean Santhanam

Revainrating 1 out of 5

good idea but has major problems

While this palette is a popular choice amongst gouache painters, it leaks, grows mold rather easily, isn't airtight, and leaks if tipped, paint leaks into different wells. Many other painters I have asked about these negatives agree that they definitely have the same issue but just deal with it. I kept mine unfortunately it destroyed $300 worth of paint since all the colors ran together. The palette was stored flat and was "cleaned" before storage. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone but if its the only one the price isn't that bad. I just wouldn't fill it up to the top since it leaks.

Pros
  • Allows for easy mixing of colors
Cons
  • The lid may not fit properly if the palette is overfilled
