The Caran d'Ache Eco Gouache range contains 22 colors of solvent and allergen-free, opaque and matt-drying gouache paints. The color range offers a comprehensive palette which can mix to any color you need. As these colors have a high pigment concentration, they have great covering power - even in low concentrations.
These paints have a matt finish when dry and are opaque, even when diluted. They have a thick and soft consistency and are easy to apply. Although they are a student quality range, Eco Gouache colors have good lightfastness and can be used on a wide variety of substrates, from paper and cardboard to wood or salt dough. They can be cleaned easily with soapy water.
The paints can be used straight from the bottle or diluted before use. A 500ml bottle of paint can be diluted with up to 2 liters of water and will still offer great color strength and covering power.
These vibrant water-based paints are manufactured in Switzerland from 80% natural ingredients - the packaging also consists of recycled cartons from Switzerland, while the bottles are made of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), a recycled and recyclable plastic.
