FAQs
Are these paints toxic?
The Djeco water-based paints are designed for artistic use and are generally considered safe for children, but they should not be ingested.
Can I replace individual colours when they run out?
The palette is designed as a single unit; individual paint dots are not sold separately for replacement.
Is the reservoir brush refillable?
Yes, you can unscrew the brush head to refill the barrel with fresh water.
What surfaces work best with these paints?
Watercolor paper, heavy cardstock, and bristol board provide the best results for water-based media.
Can the colours be mixed?
Yes, you can mix colours on a separate plastic surface or by layering them carefully on the paper while wet.
How do I remove paint stains from clothes?
Since they are water-based, most spots can be removed by rinsing with warm water and mild soap immediately after the spill occurs.
Troubleshooting
Paint not transferring to brush
Ensure the brush tip is sufficiently wet; tap the tip gently on the paint surface until the pigment begins to soften.
Colours look dull on paper
Check your paper quality. High-absorbency watercolor paper is recommended over standard printer paper for better colour saturation.
Brush is leaking water
Check that the cap is screwed on tightly and that the brush head is securely seated in the handle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the palette is straightforward: simply fill the reservoir brush with water and touch the tip to the desired paint dot to activate the pigment. The paints work best on cold-press watercolor paper or heavy cardstock to prevent buckling.
To ensure the longevity of your palette:
- Cleaning: Always rinse the brush tip thoroughly between colours to avoid muddying the pigment dots.
- Drying: Allow the paint dots to air dry completely before closing the lid to prevent mold or stickiness.
- Storage: Store the palette in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the pigments over time.
