Are Masterson Sta Wet Palettes Any Good?
The patented "Sta-Wet" process uses a specially formulated palette paper, which you pre-moisten with water, and then place upon a thin sponge material fully saturated with water. The paint will slowly absorb moisture from the sponge, through the paper, to maintain proper consistency of the paint. The key to success with your Sta-Wet Palette is the proper preparation of the palette
How Do it get my Sta Wet Palette to work properly?
Prepare the Sta-Wet Acrylic paper by placing a sheet of Masterson’s acrylic paper in the sink and turn on the HOT water. Do not use the sink stopper; let the water drain over the paper and out of the sink.. Allow the hot water to run directly onto the paper for 45-60 seconds. The paper will become semi-transparent
The sponge material has been compressed. Once you moisten it with water, it will expand to 1/4” thickness. The first time you use the sponge, rinse it thoroughly to remove any adhesives used during the processing of the sponge. Doing so will extend the life of the sponge. Then, fully saturate the sponge with COLD water. DO NOT WRING OUT THE SPONGE. Place the wet sponge in the palette tray. If the sponge is too large for the tray when it is wet, wring the sponge out and trim it to fit with a pair of scissors. Then saturate the sponge again with cold water and lay it in the tray.
Place a wet piece of Sta-Wet Acrylic palette paper on top of the sponge and use a paper towel of soft cloth to wipe off the excess moisture from the top surface of the paper.
The paints will slowly absorb moisture from the sponge, through the paper. Darker paint colors may bleed back into the sponge. Simply wash out the sponge when your project is completed. The paper is strong and will not easily tear, even if a palette knife is used.
When you have finished painting, place the lid on the tray, making sure the lid is properly sealed, and your paint will remain fresh for many days.
