Review: Works - Great product
Review: Had to contact Seller, issue was resolved - Long story short: The paint that desertcart has given me was old paint, but it "spoiled"/was bad. My replacement from desertcart was just as bad so I contacted the seller, or Speedball themselves. They confirmed both were old and bad quality paint and they sent me a replacement. I still have questions and waiting for a response but I appreciate them for replacing it with a better quality one, thankfully easier to clean up. NOTE: If the paint is really "chunky" and not smooth, get it replaced. BUYER BEWARE: This is not a SOLID white, it has a glimmer to it and any paint I mix it will glitters. Pretty awkward when I have it next to the other colors which have no "shine"/"glimmer" to them.

Long story short: The paint that amazon has given me was old paint, but it "spoiled"/was bad. My replacement from amazon was just as bad so I contacted the seller, or Speedball themselves. They confirmed both were old and bad quality paint and they sent me a replacement. I still have questions and waiting for a response but I appreciate them for replacing it with a better quality one, thankfully easier to clean up.

### ⭐ The black ink smudges and ruins your work
*by G***S on 29 January 2021*

Really disappointed with this brand. I bought the brown ink which was excellent quality. I thought all their colours would be of this quality. I got a black one and it never dries fully, even after days and weeks. It easily smudges and has left me with a lot of pointless wastage for my work. This is quite pricey for water based ink that is supposed to be considered good quality. I won't risk buying another colour again. Really disappointing and lacks consistency as a brand. Avoid!
