Description
A powerful, single pigment, red.
Based on a Napthol pigment it is a powerful tinter, in masstone not disimilar to Cadmium red deep. It is deeper (leaning more towards violet than orange) than the swatch opposite suggests.
When tinted with white it produces a wide range coolish pinks.
Not quite the opaqueness of a Cadmium but pretty close, as a cheaper alternative to a Cadmium Red Deep it is excellent.
Just pigment and oil, finely ground.
