- Is this ink waterproof once dry?
- Yes. System3 acrylic ink dries to a waterproof, permanent film, so you can layer watercolor or more ink over it without lifting the color.
- Can I use it in an airbrush?
- Yes. It is thin enough to spray straight or with a little water, and it cleans out with water before it dries. Flush the airbrush promptly to avoid clogs.
- How is it different from tube acrylic paint?
- It is much thinner and more fluid, made for drawing, spraying and washes rather than thick brush texture. It also dries faster and more permanently than most tube acrylics.
- Does the set include a transparent medium?
- Yes. One bottle is a transparent medium you can mix with the colors to make glazes or extend the ink without losing adhesion.
- Can I mix these inks with water?
- Yes. They thin with water for washes and pale tints. Too much water weakens the binder, so keep the mix mostly ink for permanent results.
- What surfaces do they work on?
- They bond to paper, board, canvas, wood and primed metal or plastic. Size absorbent paper first if you want flat washes without buckling.
