If colour has solidified in your water colour tube, it is not possible to return it to its liquid form however, it can be used as a type of pan colour. It will not perform as well as our Artists' Water Colour that has been formulated specifically for pan application, however by adding a little Winsor & Newton Gum Arabic medium to water and then using the dried tubes as pans, it means that they can continue to be used.



To prolong the life of water colour tubes for as long as possible try to ensure:



1. The threads on the neck of the tube are free of colour
2. The lid is replaced tightly
3. The tubes are stored at ambient temperature
