About Cobra Artist Oil Colours

What is the difference between Cobra Artist and Cobra Study?

Both qualities use the same pigments. The differences lie in the amount of pigment and the fineness of the grinding during the production process.

Cobra Artist uses more pigment and the pigments are ground more finely during the production process.

What canvases are used for painting with Cobra?

If Cobra is thinned with water, universally primed canvases are the best choice. If water is not used, then it is possible to paint on canvases that have been prepared in the traditional way using an oil-based primer.

Can Cobra oil colours be used to paint on metal or plastics?

Oil paint does not adhere well onto metal, plastics and other non-absorbent grounds. The ground will first have to be treated with an adhesive primer or wash primer suitable for the ground in question.

We cannot guarantee the quality of adherence of the primer. Lightly sand the primer once dry and apply a second layer. Also sand this layer once dry and apply one or more layers of Gesso 1001. The ground is now ready for painting with oil paint.

What does Artists' Quality mean in the case of Cobra?

A number of factors determine whether paint can be referred to as Artists' Quality.

  1. The amount of pigment is important. Cobra Artist has a higher pigment content than Cobra Study.
  2. An Artists' Quality assortment has a wide choice of colours.
  3. The fineness is important. The ingredients in the paint must be distributed as well as possible. This requires more time in production.
