All colors dry at the same rate, and to a uniform semi-gloss finish. Alkyd colors are made with an alkyd resin binder that has been modified with a non­yellowing drying oil for optimum color retention, excellent durability, and rapid drying time. Use alkyds with Liquin and other traditional Oil Painting Mediums. Clean with mineral spirits.
