Shake or stir well before use. Apply with a brush or palette knife for smooth coverage. For layering, let each layer dry before adding the next. To modulate tone, mix with lighter greens or add a small amount of white or black for shading; clean brushes with soap and water between colors.

Daler Rowney System 3 works well on primed canvas, acrylic-primed boards, heavyweight paper, wood panels, and other primed painting surfaces. Ensure the surface is clean and properly prepared for best adhesion and longevity.

For richer forest greens, try mixing with Cadmium Yellow Hue or Sap Green for warmer greens, or add Ultramarine Blue sparingly for cooler, darker tones. Start with small test mixes on a palette to dial in the exact hue you need before applying to your work.

System 3 acrylics typically dry to the touch within a short period (often 15–20 minutes depending on thickness and environmental conditions). You can rework or blend while still slightly tacky, but once it’s fully dry, reworking may require scumbling or reactivation with water slightly and careful painting.

Yes. The Hooker’s Green pigment in System 3 is formulated to be lightfast, helping colour stay true over time. It is water-based and non-toxic when used as directed, but as with all art materials, avoid ingestion and keep away from small children.

Rinse brushes with warm water and mild soap until the water runs clear. Gently reshape bristles and lay flat to dry to preserve brush shape and longevity.
