Archival Fast Evaporating Solvent 500ml 

Archival fast evaporating solvent feels the same as regular odourless solvents, however, it evaporates quickly in comparison and dries faster than traditional turpentines.

The reduction in drying time makes this an ideal paint additive or solvent for laying in the ground of a painting.

Using this solvent, oil paint can be easily diluted and applied, the fast drying time allowing for quick applications of layers of thinner paint. The drying process may complete in approx 1 hour whereas standard solvents can take 24 hours to evaporate.

Features:

• 500ml Plastic Bottle

• Odourless formula

• Evaporates fast

• Less toxic than Mineral Turpentine

• Keep in a cool dry environment

About the Brand

Chroma Australia is dedicated to providing high-quality paint for artists, teachers, students and anyone who enjoys painting. Founded and still manufacturing in Sydney, Australia, in 1965 by artist and educator Jim Cobb, Chroma’s focus is and has always been on the development of both innovative and quality products. A high school teacher at that time, Jim was frustrated at not being able to source artists’ paint with the qualities that he wanted for his own and his students’ art. Jim began badgering household paint manufacturers in Sydney’s west for supplies to experiment with. This was the start of a lifetime of passion for developing paints specifically formulated to meet the changing needs of artists and students.

Shortly after, Jim founded Chroma Australia (formerly Chroma Acrylics) in Mt Kuring-Gai in Sydney’s upper north shore and successfully supplied Australia and beyond (exporting to several countries) with quality artists materials and advice ever since. Chroma Inc was founded in the USA some 20 years later and is also a success story.

Chroma Australia is a member of Sedex which is a global membership organization dedicated to driving improvements in ethical and responsible business practices across global supply chains to help protect people’s working conditions and their environment.
