User questions & answers

Question:	I recently read that cheaper tubes of paint usually contain less pigment. How's the opacity of this brand
Answer:	That I don’t know I bought a queen size for a full size bed
Question:	If I get paint on my clothes, does this paint wash out easily
Answer:	No sadly
Question:	are these water soluable
Answer:	No. It is a 2 piece set. 1 duvet cover and 1 pillow case
Question:	What are the exact names of the colors included in this set
Answer:	This would be too big for a full bed. We have it on a queen and it fits perfectly. The zippers run exactly along the edge of the bed. I'm not sure if this print comes in full.
Question:	is the zipper decent quality? I bought a similar product and the zipper broke on first use
Answer:	This is a queen size set.
Question:	Does this duvet shed
Answer:	There are zippers on both sides.
Question:	Does it come with pillow cases to match
Answer:	The prices are the same price on our website and on Amazon. On Amazon we only offer the Premium sets. On our wenste we offer several different options. Maybe this is where the confusion is coming from. Feel free to contact our office directly if you have additional questions, 720-929-1099. Tammy@quickZip
Question:	Has anyone washed this yet? How does it look after
Answer:	Thank you for contacting us. We currently sell the Twin XL for adjustable beds on our website and not on Amazon at this time. We will be listing the Twin XL on Amazon in the next couple of weeks. I am sorry for the inconvenience. Tammy@QuickZip

FIRM CORNER TIES

Highest quality pigments

All Liquitex paints use the highest quality pigments and go through the same rigorous manufacturing process. The only difference is that with Basics we use a lower concentration of pigment than our professional paints. For Basics, fine art pigments are selected and milled using the latest basket bead-mill technology, in the same way as Soft and Heavy Body Acrylics. Pigments are ground with tiny reinforced ceramic beads to give fine dispersion, great color development, strength and brightness, before being added to the acrylic emulsion.

Economical

Push your budget harder with Basics. Use on their own or combine together with professional materials – if they’re made by Liquitex, they’re all intermixable. Perfect for everyday use, for sketching out preliminary ideas, for underpainting before laying down your final paint application and for covering large areas.

Archival quality

Hanging on a client’s wall. In a gallery. It needs to stay as you intended. As with all Liquitex paints, the pigments have passed extensive tests for lightfastness. Your work will have the greatest archival permanence possible, withstanding color shifting or fading to stay vibrant and true.

Sticks to most surfaces

Use Basics on canvas, paper & board, wood & masonry, metal, styrofoam, stone & ceramics, and textiles.

Medium viscosity

Basics paints come in a single consistency across all colors - a medium viscosity that is highly versatile and easy to work with.

Range of opacities

Each color is dictated by its natural pigment character. If you look at the packaging labels, you will see that some are opaque, others are semi-opaque and others are transparent.

Product description

Since developing the first water-based artist acrylic paints in 1955, Liquitex has focused on providing all of the tools needed by the professional artist. All Liquitex products are formulated by a unique team of chemists and artists. This combination allows us to make the most versatile ranges of intense, highly-loaded, permanent colors possible. Liquitex is the only acrylic paint brand to offer four uniquely different ranges of professional acrylic color to suit the needs of the artist. That in mind, range-specific handling characteristics are established so that each Liquitex paint feels just right - never too sticky or slippery. The low-odor acrylic resin base represents the latest in acrylic resin technology, offering increased open time and producing colors of great clarity. The paint films are highly flexible, durable, non-yellowing, UV resistant, water-resistant, and ph neutral when dry. All Liquitex professional colors can be intermixed with each other and Liquitex mediums. Liquitex heavy body artist acrylic paint, previously referred to as high Viscosity, has a thick consistency for traditional art techniques using brushes or knives as well as for experimental mixed media collage and printmaking applications. Impasto (thick) applications retain crisp brush stroke and knife marks. Good surface drag provides excellent handling and blending characteristics with increased open-working time. High pigment load produces rich brilliant permanent color.

• Basic palette for the student, beginner, or Professional
• Intermixable with Liquitex Professional Acrylic paint colors and mediums. Color match across ranges

Pure pigments

Heavy Body Acrylic is known for its rich, permanent color. Our chemists use the latest basket bead-mill technology to bring out the best in every pigment. Tiny reinforced ceramic beads give fine dispersion, great color development, strength and brightness. Every color is individually formulated to allow the unique character of each pigment to express itself-whether it’s naturally opaque, semi-opaque or transparent.

A safe formula

The low-odor acrylic resin base in Heavy Body represents the latest in acrylic resin technology, giving you increased open time and colors of great clarity and vibrancy, with minimal wet-to-dry shift. The paint film is highly flexible, durable, non-yellowing, UV-resistant and water-resistant when dry.

High viscosity

This is our highest viscosity paint. Good surface drag gives excellent handling and blending characteristics, with increased open-working time. Never too slippery, or too sticky. Heavy Body Acrylic delivers intense color in the ideal consistency for a range of techniques.

Non-cracking

A flexible, crack-free result. Even when you go in thick. Impasto and 3D applications dry without fracturing due to advanced acrylic technology which brings flexibility to the paint film. Giving you a durable, noncracking finish.

User questions & answers

Question:	can I use it for T-shirt? and, is it washable
Answer:	I wouldn't recommend it for a t-shirt. This type of paint is more for canvas painting. I would suggest using a paint that is specifically for fabric for the best results. It is and isn't washable, it depends on how quickly you get at it.
Question:	Can these paints be used for painting plastic models
Answer:	These paints will adhere to the surface of a plastic model, however they are not a self-leveling paint, and will tend to leave brush marks on the surface. These also will not be as durable on plastic as they would be on absorbent surfaces like canvas, paper, or other fabrics. If you tried, you could scratch through the finish. These paints can be clear-coated with sprays such as those made by Krylon to make for a glossy finish, but otherwise these will dry with a satin sheen.
Question:	are the tubes 250 ml each (8.5oz) or a total of 250 ml combined
Answer:	It should say in the text that each tube only contains 22 ml. When you look at the picture, it shows that the tubes contain 250 ml each - they don't!Where I come from, we call that faulthy marketing information!
Question:	what colors are in the kits
Answer:	This item was a gift but I did look at it before I gave it to her. There were the basic colors, red, green blue etc. but there were many other colors that are called for in many of the pictures alot of people ues. I felt it was a good overall color selection. Sorry I couldn't be more specific. Johnette

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this varnish smooth out the texture of an acrylic painting
Answer:	Hi, Thank you for reaching out. QuickZip works great on Sleep number beds. Our size chart is listed under the FAQ section on our website. You can also give us a call to confirm the sizes of our sheets. 720-929-1099. Tammy@QuickZip
Question:	How much Gloss Varnish do i need to properly coat an 18"x24" Canvas
Answer:	I am researching this product and had the same question, too. I was looking for a zip-on top sheet such that the user could slip under the top sheet and zip it up like a sleeping bag that is attached to the mattress. This is necessary because some restless sleepers tend to kick off their lightweight top sheets during the night and then get cold. They move around so much that even a tucked top sheet becomes untucked. The other benefit would be that you don't have to tuck a top sheet around a bunk bed mattress any more. You'd just zip it up. So I had the same concern - if a user slipped under this zippered top sheet you would have still have to wash both the top sheet AND the bottom (fitted) sheet that the user had slept on. Like a sandwich (or sleeping bag) the user would have been in contact with the zippered top sheet and the surface it was zipped onto. Now after spending way too much time reading about the product and watching the videos I realized that the zippered top does NOT have an opening at the top for a user to slide down into like a sleeping bag. This product's top (zippered) sheet is the part the user would sleep on, and you need to provide a top sheet to go over the sleeper separately. Now I understand the product, but it won't meet our needs. I need, essentially, a sleeping bag sewn onto the fitted sheet. A way for the restless sleeper to stay snug between the sheets.
Question:	What is the effective difference between normal matte medium and the matte fluid medium
Answer:	No. It fits a twin mattress. It's one of the reasons we finally got our son a regular bed.
Question:	will this work on airdry clay when i make a dish
Answer:	thanks for your question. the compression sheet has strong elasticity. so, the queen size can fit king size bed. Also, mostly, it is designed for children. then, it is smaller size. but you can try the queen size (63" x60" ) compression sheeet. hope it helps to you thanks

Multi Technique

Soft Body suits a wide range of techniques and applications. It loves almost any surface and dries flexibly and quickly for easy layering and masking. Want something new? Use a professional medium to change its character further.

Soft Body vs Heavy Body

If you thought Soft Body was just a watered down Heavy Body, you’d be wrong. This flowing, low viscosity formula was actually created first. The two paints have compatible binders and pack the same high pigment load. But if you thin Heavy Body with water or medium, you reduce concentration and get noticeably weaker colors. Paint feel, performance and stability is also impacted, so choose the right consistency of paint for the job.

Pure pigments

Every color is individually formulated to allow the unique character of each pigment to express itself. As pigmented per volume as Heavy Body Acrylic, Soft Body uses the latest resin technology to give you maximum clarity and vibrancy, with minimal wet-to-dry shift.

Soft & flowing

With a low viscosity and just the right amount of body, Soft Body is never too sticky or slippery. When you need to cover a wide area, this is your go-to. It’s perfect for large-scale works and big blocks of color, giving you around 400 sq ft per gallon.

Archival quality

On a client’s wall. In a gallery. Your work needs to stay as you intended. The pigments in Soft Body Acrylic are lightfast.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product exactly as pictured - "Liquitex Heavy Body" or is this misleading
Answer:	Yup!
Question:	Which series is this comparable to
Answer:	The paint is great but for my taste and classical education , These are not the best mixing colors..I will use them but I'm disappointed in the colors. Next time I will pick true classic colors individually.
Question:	On the picture for this set, it says "professional" acrylic. Is that what the tubes will say in the set I am considering ordering? Thanks
Answer:	Liquitex makes a professional "artists" grade and a student grade acrylic. The student grade says "Basic" and the tubes are clear. The difference is the professional grade has far more tinting power. It is also the more expensive, but you do get what you pay for.
Question:	What colors are included, and what are their lightfastness ratings? Thanks
Answer:	Liquitex paints are labeled with light-fastness, and "Transparent, Opaque, or translucent." It varies with the particular pigment or mix.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this the 12 set? The description says six set but i pushed on the 12 essentials set
Answer:	If your a beginner, you may want a set with primary colors, the set I received was secondary colors. Liquitex is a great brand of paints though.
Question:	Can this be used on canvas
Answer:	Cheaper paints often do contain less pigment, but that generally has nothing to do with opacity! Some colors are just less opaque than others, no matter how expensive. A lot of yellows, for example, may be less opaque than white. But so are some greens, blues, etc. These are good paints and I have used them professionally for years.
Question:	Is this the 12 set? The description says six set but i pushed on the 12 essentials set
Answer:	You can Google a few methods to getting acrylic paint out of clothing, but I certainly wouldn't consider it easy to clean. If you do get it on your clothing, act fast! For something washable, look into tempura paint.

Ultra-pigmented

Think of gouache, think of saturated color. And ours packs a punch. The technology inside is complex, taking two years in the lab to develop. The innovative formula has a super-concentration of pure, ultra-fine pigments dispersed evenly in a flexible acrylic vehicle. It contains the highest intensity of pigment in any of our paints, giving you serious color payoff every time.

Flat and matte

Gouache is traditionally the go-to for flat, matte results. Our next-generation formula is no exception, giving you solid matte color without reflections or brush strokes. Because it doesn't reflect the light, it's perfect for scanning and mixing with digital effects - making it ideal for illustration and design work.

Water resistant

Get a new level of permanence and water-resistance not normally seen in a gouache. Because it's acrylic, our gouache dries quickly and doesn't move once dry - which means you can overpaint without bleeding and achieve multi-layered, velvety surface effects. It has the perfect surface tension, so you can use it on any acrylic-friendly substrate.

No need to dilute

Traditional gouaches need water to ease their way. Our acrylic gouache gives you a creamy, fluid texture with superb brush-out, straight from the bottle. Application feels effortless and flowing, with no drag - making it perfect for large area coverage or fine detail. And because you don't need to add water, your colors keep their true vibrancy.

Ergonomic bottle design

Our ergonomic bottle and clear labeling have been designed in collaboration with artists, to help us create what we believe is the perfect format. It's fully reusable and recyclable, and not a drop of paint will go to waste.

Stackable either way up. Easy-open and close lid. A pre-cut nozzle for immediate use. Screw-off top and extra wide neck give easier access with squeezable body. No shoulders or corners for paint to get trapped in.

Technical info in one place. Easy-to-read symbols for pigment, series, opacity, and lightfastness. Swatch shows true color, finish and opacity.

Opaque/semi-opaque

Each color is individually developed to create the optimum opacity possible for its pigment type. It's all down to a very careful balance of pigment, the amounts used, and particle size distribution. This results in the best possible combination of opacity versus flexibility, with minimum show through. Even on black and patterned backgrounds.

Non-cracking

Due to the high level of pigment, most gouaches can crack when drying. Ours sets a new benchmark. The acrylic vehicle brings flexibility to the paint film, giving you a reliable, non-cracking finish.

Archival quality

On a client’s wall. In a gallery. Your work needs to stay as you intended. The pigments in Acrylic Gouache are lightfast. This means your work will have the greatest archival permanence possible – at least 50 years+ in gallery conditions – with no color shifting or fading, to stay vibrant and true.
