THE SCOUT’S CODE
Small paws.
Clear ground rules.
- 01
Keep the source.
Real retailer listings. Exact products and variants. A missing price stays missing.
- 02
Show the evidence.
Undated imports are catalog snapshots, not live prices. Dated history begins with a successful retailer check.
- 03
Never invent the drop.
One checked price is one observation, not a trend. Undated snapshots never become price drops or target alerts.

About this product range
Akua Retarder serves two purposes: it acts as a release agent for printing on dry paper and retards the Akua Liquid Pigments from drying on the monotype plate, therefore extending the working time. Use with Akua Liquid Pigments only (not necessary with Akua Intaglio inks). This clear liquid retarder cleans up easily with water.
