Introducing the Masking Fluid from Schmincke, a revolutionary tool designed for artists who value precision and creativity in their watercolor compositions. Established in 1881, Schmincke has built a reputation for crafting top-tier artist colors that resonate with creators globally. This exceptional masking fluid features a distinct blue-drying, odorless formula that seamlessly masks areas on watercolor paper and smooth drawing cardboard, allowing your artistic expressions to shine without interruption.

The product is equipped with an innovative dispensing pen featuring a fine tip that ensures accurate and controlled application directly onto your artwork. Made from a quick-drying, ammonia-free synthetic resin dispersion, this masking fluid empowers artists to execute their vision smoothly, effectively covering sections meant to remain untouched during painting. It dries to a rubbery, water-insoluble film, forming a trustworthy barrier against watercolor, gouache, and other water-based stains.

Utilizing Schmincke's Masking Fluid is a breeze. Simply dispense it onto the areas you want to protect and let it dry. Once dry, you can go ahead and paint over it with your favorite color mediums. The highlight? Removal of the masking fluid is effortless—just rub it off gently with your dry fingers after your color dries! No peeling, no fuss!

However, a key point to consider is that the masking fluid should not remain on the substrate for more than two days to preserve the integrity of your paper. Artists utilizing delicate papers such as rag or torchon should approach with caution to avoid any unwanted effects. Schmincke's Masking Fluid stands out as a game-changing solution for artists aiming to enhance their watercolor masterpieces while enjoying a streamlined and enjoyable creative process.
