Description
This paint is made of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which helps to prevent the paint from expressing oil while drying, which can cause yellowing. It also contains linseed oil, which makes the paint more durable and less likely to chip or peel. The paint is rated as a 1 series, which means that it is suitable for a bright, mostly cool palette. It is also rated as a very opaque paint, has excellent lightfastness, and a low oil content.

This paint is bound with Linseed Oil and contains a 25% addition of Zinc Oxide White in order to avert the tendency of pure Titanium Dioxide pigment to express or exude oil to the surface whilst drying, which then causes a more pronounced appearance of yellowing. Zinc Oxide incorporates this free oil more effectively, as well as adding a cooler brightness to the white. If you want a strong mixer which tends to lighten hues conspicuously, as well as making the Cadmiums rather chalky in appearance, then this is it. The handling qualities are not overly subtle, but this is the white most suitable for a bright and largely cool palette. It forms a strong film when dry.
