FAQs
What makes QoR watercolors different from traditional ones?
QoR uses an exclusive binder called Aquazol, which allows for a higher pigment density, resulting in more vibrant colors and greater color depth compared to traditional watercolors.
How do I reactivate dried QoR watercolors?
Like most tube watercolors, dried QoR paint can be reactivated by adding water to it on your palette and letting it sit for a moment before mixing.
Is the Iridescent Gold Fine suitable for all art styles?
The Iridescent Gold Fine is particularly suited for adding metallic highlights and shimmer. While versatile, its unique effect might be best utilized in styles that benefit from these special qualities.
Can I mix QoR Iridescent Gold Fine with other colors?
Yes, QoR watercolors are designed for compatibility with other professional watercolors. Mixing will blend the iridescent quality with the base color.
How much paint is in the tube?
Each tube contains 11 ml of QoR Iridescent Gold Fine watercolor.
Does the color change after drying?
No, a key characteristic of QoR watercolors is that the colors remain brilliant and true to their wet appearance after they dry.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears dry in the tube.
Gently squeeze the tube. If the paint is partially dry, it can often be re-activated by adding a drop of water and mixing on a palette.
Color is not as vibrant as expected.
Ensure you are using enough paint. Due to the high pigment density, a small amount can create a strong effect. Try applying a slightly thicker layer or re-wetting the paint to increase intensity.
Iridescent effect is not prominent.
The visibility of iridescent effects can depend on the lighting and the angle of viewing. Experiment with layering or applying the paint more opaquely. Ensure the paint is fully re-wetted.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No specific setup is required. The paint is ready to use directly from the 11 ml tube.
Compatibility: QoR watercolors are designed to be compatible with other professional-grade tube watercolors and pan watercolors. They can be mixed with water and other watercolor mediums. Use on watercolor paper or other suitable art surfaces.
Care: To maintain the paint's quality, always ensure the tube cap is securely closed after use to prevent drying. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If paint dries on a palette, it can usually be re-activated with water. Clean brushes thoroughly with water after each use.
