Rubens Premia is the synthesis of traditional paint making and the most up-to-date chemistry know-how in the field of paints. The carefully chosen selection of pigments stand out for their optimal lightfastness (UV resistance), and the impressive colour brilliance of the 60 shades, three quarters of which are made from a single pigment! This guarantees an above average purity of colour. The pigments in Rubens Premia are not combined with additives to strengthen their performance - the covering power or translucency is due to the respective pigments themselves. Rubens Premia are distinguished by their thick, solid consistency - formerly found only in the finest oil paints. They allow free and spontaneous expressive painting as well as techniques where the paint is applied in thick, textured layers with a spatula or brush - a result of the advanced binding agent composition based on non-yellowing acrylates and maximum pigment concentrations, and further reflected in their amazing colour strength. Rubens Premia is the perfect example of a paint that meets the needs of the most advanced painters, whilst not neglecting economical concerns: its colour strength allows it to be used sparingly, and its unique consistency is a step towards the abandonment of additional mediums. All standard shades are available in 35ml and 100ml tubes. 48 colours in this range are available in 250ml and 500ml pots. The 5 translucent interference colours come only in 35ml tubes.
