FAQs
How long do the hydrofoam pads last?
The lifespan depends on usage frequency and how well you care for the pads. The Sanitized® treatment extends their life, but they will eventually need to be replaced.
Can I use these pads with other wet palettes?
They are designed specifically for the Green Stuff World Wet Palette. While they *might* fit other palettes, optimal performance is guaranteed when used with the GSW palette.
How do I clean the hydrofoam pads?
Gently rinse the pad with clean water. You can also use a mild soap solution. Allow the pad to air dry completely before reusing it. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is Sanitized® treatment?
It is a treatment that helps prevent mold and bacterial growth, extending the lifespan of the hydrofoam and keeping your wet palette hygienic.
Can I store my paints on the palette for extended periods?
Yes, the wet palette is designed to keep your paints workable for several days. However, paints can still dry out eventually, especially if the palette isn't properly sealed.
What if my hydrofoam pad wrinkles?
The design aims to prevent wrinkles, but if they do appear, gently smooth the pad. Wrinkles can interfere with paint application.
Troubleshooting
Hydrofoam pad dries out too quickly.
Ensure the palette is properly sealed. Add more water to the pad if needed. Check for any damage to the palette that might be causing air leaks.
Mold or impurities appear on the hydrofoam pad.
Clean the palette and the pad thoroughly. Consider using a diluted solution of water and mild soap to clean the pad. Replace the pad if the issue persists or is severe.
