Daniel Smith's Watercolour Masking Fluid is easy to use with the bottle applicator, the included 5, fine-point applicator tips or with an inexpensive brush. Masking Fluid makes an impervious barrier to protect your watercolour paper and preserve the white areas by blocking watercolour washes from flowing into areas you don’t want leaving crisp, clean edges.
This Masking Fluid applies as an off-white colour and dries to a transparent caramel colour so that you can see it while working, and still be unobtrusive while working on your painting.
Easy to remove when Masking Fluid has dried with a rubber cement pick-up or even with your clean fingers. Be careful though, about leaving oils from your fingers when rubbing off the dried Masking Fluid, oils from your fingers can interfere with new applications of watercolour.
Once the Masking Fluid had been removed, either keep the white areas white or add fresh watercolour onto the preserved white area to retain maximum watercolour luminosity.

Write a reviewProduct goes on very smoothly and I liked the fact that it darkens from white to beige so it's easily visible without being coloured. However, the applicator tips fall off repeatedly and even when rinsed immediately with hot water, have to be cleaned out with a fine pin. Best to leave a pin in the spout as well.
This masking fluid has once again ruined my work. I applied to a drawing, washed in the background and waited until dry. On removing the masking it has torn the paper, I was really pleased with my drawing too.
This is not the first time this has happened. I have previously used Winsor and Newton and have not had any problems whatsoever, will be ordering W & N only in future for reliability and so I don't waste my time.
wish I`d had this long ago
