Wet it first with a few drops of binder, then mull it into linseed oil, acrylic medium, egg yolk or gum arabic with a muller or palette knife until smooth. Thin layers give transparent glazes; with white it makes clean, cool pinks, and with blue it gives clear violets. Add it to mixtures little by little and keep the jar closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout quinacridone magenta\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuinacridones are synthetic organic pigments first sold by DuPont in 1958. They are known for exceptional color and weather fastness, which is why they are widely used in car and industrial coatings, and quinacridone dispersions are the most common magenta printing ink. In artists' paints these more light-resistant pigments largely replaced alizarin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSafety\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandle dry pigment with care: avoid breathing the dust and contact with eyes. Wear a dust mask (FFP2\/N95) and gloves when working with the powder, work in a well-ventilated area and wipe up spills with a damp cloth. Do not eat, drink or smoke while working; wash your hands afterwards. Keep away from children and pets. For artistic and technical use only — not for cosmetics, food or tattoos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs quinacridone magenta lightfast?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
