Zest-It Pencil Blend is an excellent solvent that can be used to blend your favourite coloured pencils. It works with many makes of colour pencil, including Caran d'Ache Luminance, Faber-Castell Polychromos, Derwent Drawing, Artist and Coloursoft Pencils and also with brands such as Prismacolor and Karisma. It works just as well with wax-based pencils, oil pastels, crayons, oil bars and graphite.
Zest-it has a pleasant scent and leaves no residue on the paper, which makes it popular choice with coloured pencil artists. It is economical to use and a safer solvent than odourless mineral spirit or similar solvents. It can be applied using a tortillion, cotton bud or brush.
Make sure your workspace has good ventilation when using this solvent and wash hands after use.
Now available in a 50ml bottle.
