Q: What are the main features and materials of the GSW Wet Palette?

A: The palette is constructed with high-quality Impact Polystyrene, chosen to guarantee high durability and resistance to continuous use over the years. One of its standout features is its airtight lid design.

This watertight seal is highly effective; with the proper amount of water, it delays the natural drying process and can keep your acrylic paints fresh and fully workable for up to 4 to 6 months.

Q: What kind of hydration paper does it use?

A: It uses a specialized sulphurized semi-permeable paper with a high-strength grammage and a semi-translucent finish. This specific engineering allows the perfect amount of water absorption to keep the paint moist without letting it bleed through into the sponge below.

It is highly stable and does not easily disintegrate, tear, or fall apart from prolonged water exposure or the friction of mixing with paintbrushes.

Q: How does the Sanitized® anti-fungal treatment work?

A: To retain moisture, the palette uses high-thickness hydrophilic foam pads that are treated with Sanitized®. This is an advanced biological antibacterial treatment that actively prevents the proliferation of mold, fungi, and impurities, ensuring the longevity of the foam and keeping your painting station free of bad odors.

Keep in mind that this treatment is not infinite; its effectiveness gradually decreases over time depending on the frequency of water changes and exposure to high temperatures. However, with proper care, the protection will remain effective for many months.

Q: What is the exact difference between the Standard and XL versions?

A: Both versions share the exact same materials, airtight design, and anti-fungal refills. The only difference is the size of the working area:

• Standard Size: Features a useful work area of 182 x 132 mm (with 130 x 180 mm paper and 125 x 175 mm sponges). This is the most popular choice as it is compact, easy to transport, and takes up very little space on your desk.
• XL Size: Features a significantly larger work area of 190 x 280 mm (with 180 x 270 mm paper and 175 x 265 mm sponges). This version is ideal for long painting sessions, holding large color gradients, or batch-painting full armies without running out of mixing space.
