Ensure you are using the correct water-to-paint ratio; if using excessive water, pre-stretch the paper by soaking and taping it down before painting.
Use a palette knife or a flat ruler to gently slide under the binding edge to release the adhesive tension.
To maximize the performance of your Winsor & Newton pad, ensure your workspace is flat. While the paper is resistant to cockling, using artist tape to secure the edges to a drawing board can provide extra stability during complex compositions. Store the pad in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its archival integrity. Avoid using heavy-duty adhesive tapes that might tear the surface fibers upon removal; masking tape or low-tack artist tape is recommended. Keep the pad protected in a portfolio case when traveling to prevent edge damage.
