Heavy body acrylic paint with versatile pigmentation. Customers praised the 'amazing colour with enough depth to be translucent or densely pigmented' and superior container design over metal tubes. Quality comparable to premium brands. Mixed ratings indicate some dissatisfaction, though positive reviews highlight color depth and practical packaging.

Liquidex paints - best containers.
As far as acrylic tube paints go, I find the colour quality is comparable to the Opus brand. That being the case, I’ll take Liquidex over any others, even Golden, due to my abhorrence of the metal tubes (so much more waste) and the horrible lids (hard to release w/o ruining) once paint gunks them up.
