Museum Series Aquabord™ is an acid-free textured clay surface that absorbs watercolours like a fine paper. Colours retain their purity and vibrancy in a way that even the finest of watercolour papers can never match. When compared with watercolour paper, this multimedia panel simulates the absorbency and texture of cold pressed, but allows colour to be lifted back to white easily while also leaving the richest, most vibrant colour possible. This workable surface provides natural looking highlights, fluid glazes, transparent subtle layers, and the ability to lift color while the surface is wet or even after it is dry. Uniquely absorbent Aquabord is perfect for watercolours and gouache, but is also ideal for casein and acrylics. Will not tear, shrink or buckle even under heavy water application. Archival, eco-friendly and made in the USA.
Helpful Tips:
For best results, it’s a good idea to first “flush out” the surface of the panel with water using a large flat watercolor brush to release trapped air. Once the surface is slightly damp, it is ready to use. Rewetting may be needed as you work. Note that heavy water applications may release more air. Use a blow dryer to dry and also to dissipate air if needed. Enjoy this unique paper-like finish and create brilliant watercolours!

Love aquabord
Really interesting to watercolour on 👍🏻💗
Did you find this review useful?Excellent quality
I really like these boards, because I like to paint fine details and the surface of these boards makes it easy. Also with it being a board you don’t have to cope with taping paper down to stop it buckling.
Did you find this review useful?Lovely surface
I’m not a fan of paper for watercolour art. I love the aquabord and use this all the time for my watercolour paintings now. It is very different from watercolour paper, but it suits my style.
