About this product range

Grumbacher Academy Acrylics are a line of collegiate-grade, medium bodied acrylic paints available in an array of brilliant colors, including the most sought-after traditional colors, process colors, metallic colors, and iridescent colors. Developed in collaboration with world-class pigment suppliers, the number of pigments in individual colors are reduced, ensuring cleaner mixes and more accurate color matching without sacrificing tinting strength, opacity, or lightfastness. All colors have an ASTM lightfast rating of ‘Excellent’ and are labeled AP. Academy Acrylics are highly pigmented and offer superior tinting strength at a student-friendly price.

Made in the USA.

Properties
Zinc White is the coolest white, and it has a cold, clean masstone and a slightly bluish tint. It has less hiding power and is more transparent than other whites. It dries slowly and is good for painting wet into wet and for glazing and scumbling. Zinc White is neither as opaque nor as heavy as Lead White, its covering power is not as good, and it takes much longer to dry. However, it does not blacken when exposed to sulfur in the air as Lead White does. It is very valuable for making tints with other colors. Unmixed Zinc White dries to a brittle and dry paint film that may crack over the years, so it is not good for frescoing. It is more transparent in acrylic form than Titanium White and is the most commonly used white with gouache. Chinese White is a version of Zinc White appropriate for opaque watercolor techniques.
Permanence
Zinc White has great permanence and lightfastness.
Description
Chinese White, French White, Permanent White, Silver White, Snow White, Zinc Oxide.
