Art Spectrum Colourfix SuperTooth paper has a 50% more aggressively 'toothy' surface than the standard Colourfix paper. SuperTooth is produced on a heavyweight, acid-free, archival watercolor paper with a specially formulated clear acrylic primer mixed with silica particles. The clear coating allows the natural warm white color of the board to show through and the rigidity of the heavyweight paper provides a stout working surface. It can be under painted with any medium.
DAHLE SHARPENER
The Richeson Gator Foam boards have the same surface as the papers. The rigid, lightweight 3/16" Gator Foam provides a great plein air surface.

LIQUID SPECTRUM FROM ART SPECTRUM Origin: Australia Colors: 20 Volume: 50ml(1 3/4 fl oz)Liquid
Spectrum is super-concentrated acrylic ink with extremely heavy pigmentation, compatible with and great for tinting the Art Spectrum primer. An ink rather than paint, it is well suited for use on sanded pastel papers: covers exceptionally well, dries quick, waterproof when dry and does not fill in the sanded surface! All colors are non-toxic, intermixable and fully lightfast. Liquid Spectrum inks are very thin and can be applied with brush, roller, airbrush or pen. Bottles have a non-spill stopper for easy dispensing and measuring for mixing the ink. An extender is available to make a mixture more transparent without weakening the ink film. The cleaner is used to remove dried ink from tools and also works to remove ink from the artwork, even after the color has dried - like having an eraser for paint! Each bottle has a unique piece of cool artwork.
