12,75€The Wet Palette is a tool mainly used by figure painters, but more and more it is being used by people that paint with acrylics. It will extend the useful life of any acrylic so that it can be used for hours and once shut it will preserve the colors and color mixtures. It can be kept in the fridge.
It has three components:
1.Sponge, to hold large quantities of water, since it is quite thick.
2.Cloth made of fiber, placed on top of the sponge as a leveler, humidity filter, and as an interchangeable element in case of stains or if not used for a long time.
3.High quality special Paper, made of a fine silicone film, allows the transfer of humidity but prevents water forming and paints from dissolving, and does not give off any fibers not hairs when worked with the brushes.
The Wet Palette is watertight and airtight, made of the same material of marine containers for flares, charts, and medicines. Its locks guarantee the seal. This extends the life of paints, especially in Summer, hot climates, and under extreme conditions.
*Dimensions: 16 x 13 x 4 cm.

MAGNET ULTRA RESISTANT CYANOCRYLATE GLUE
AK12015
7,60€20g.
General-purpose cyanoacrylate 401. Fast drying, extra strong, low viscosity, specially formulated for adhesion between materials that can even have an acidic surface. Can be used with rubber, leather, wood, metal, resin and plastic. The surfaces to be joined must be free of dirt, dust and grease. A small amount of adhesive should be applied; more cyanoacrylate does not guarantee a better bond and makes more difficult the drying of the adhesive that is effective for bonding.
– 99% Cyano.
– Ethyl cyanoacrylate
– Use temperature: -55º to 120º
– Set time: between 3 and 10 seconds. The gaps and uneven surfaces can increase this setting time. It is not necessary to use clamps. Holding the pieces firmly for 10-30 seconds will ensure better adhesion.
– Definitive cure time: 24 h
– Viscosity: 110 mPa.S
– Shear strength: 21.0 MPa
* Bottles are not filled at a 100% to leave some air and make it work properly.
