<p>With Original and Heavy Body versions, System 3 acrylics are highly versatile, water-based acrylic colors. They offer an excellent painting experience at an economical price. Only high-quality pigments are used in the manufacturing of the System 3 acrylic ranges, offering significantly greater loading than in other acrylic ranges available in this class. System 3's comprehensive range of colors offers excellent light-fastness, permanence, durability and covering power.<br><br> All colors can be thinned with water to pale washes, or used directly from the pot or tube; each form dries quickly to create an insoluble film. The quick drying properties of the range enable the artist to work quickly, superimposing or juxtaposing colors without unnecessary fuss.<br><br> All System 3 Original and Heavy Body colors are fully intermixable and suitable for exterior use, except for fluorescent colors as they are not lightfast. All other colors are both lightfast and durable.</p>

Colours are water-based and contain no solvents. In accordance with EC labelling regulations, all colours are classified as non-dangerous for use. <br><br> The advantage of acrylic colours to schools and hobbyists, of course, is that artwork can be dried and stored away shortly after an art class has been completed, and will not smudge if water is spilled on the surface of the painting. The colours are fast-drying, durable and flexible, so paintings will last a long time. Paper and canvas coated with Graduate Acrylic can be loosely rolled and stored without fear of cracking.
Daler Rowney Graduate Acrylics
System 3 is a high quality, versatile artist acrylic paint that offers an excellent painting experience at a most economical price. It overcomes the problems with many student grade paints of poor covering power, lack of permanence and stick application with a paint that offers lightfastness, permanence, insoluability, covering power, and range. This versatile system can be thinned with water to pale washes, or used directly from the tube or jar. Either way it dries quickly to an insoluable film. Mediums extend the creative possibilities of System 3 from a range of surface textures and finishes to a screen printing ink for fabric and board.

And, because they're subjected to the same tough quality standards as our professional paints, colors are supremely consistent, batch to batch. This means that students can easily achieve the right color mixtures without frustration or waste. And, of course, all colors are certified AP Non-Toxic by the Art and Craft Materials Institute.
Grumbacher Academy Acrylics
The Heavy Body line of acrylics contains the largest assortment of pigments available to the professional artist, including a range of previously unavailable acrylic paints. All Golden Heavy Body Acrylics contain pure pigments in a 100% acrylic polymer emulsion vehicle. No fillers, extenders, or opacifiers are used. No toners or dyes are included. No adulterants of any kind are added. Each color in the Heavy Body line has its own specific level of gloss. Colors that tolerate higher pigment loads dry to a more opaque, matte finish. Those more reactive to high loading appear transparent and glossy.
Golden Heavy Body Acrylics
Fluid Acrylics offer very strong colors with very thin consistencies. No fillers or extenders are used, and the pigment loading is comparable to other Golden lines. Produced from lightfast pigments, not dyes. Unlike mixtures of full bodied paints with water, which produce weak films by diluting the binder and color, Fluid Acrylics contain pigments suspended in 100% acrylic polymer vehicle. The result is an even dispersion, which prevents pigments from settling, as well as high tinting strength, durability, flexibility, and adhesion. The excellent adhesion and chemical resistance of Fluid Acrylics is similar to the heavy body line. Ideal for spraying, brushing, staining, Golden Fluid Acrylics can also easily be mixed with other lines, allowing the artist to create required characteristics without diluting color strength.
