Professional Watercolour

The table below provides all the important information about the composition, characteristics and permanence of the Professional Water Colour range. You can use it to tell you how a colour will appear on your surface (transparency/opacity), how long it will last (permanence) and what pigments it is made from (chemical description) plus much more.
