GSW's Acrylic wet palette | Wet Palette, keeping paint fresh and ready.

Description

Miniature Wet Palette

The GSW Wet Pallete is a palette that, as opposed to traditional palettes, delays the natural drying process of the paint to be used. This makes the paint on the palette remain usable for longer, allowing you to have longer painting sessions without wasting paint and keeping it fresh.

Suitable only for acrylic paints. It is ideal for warm and dry environments.

Size: 182x132mm (useful work area)

Contains:

1 Wet Pallete tray with a lid
50-sheet refill of Sulphurized semi-permeable paper
2 Sanitized® treated sponges in White color
1 Elastic band
Complete instruction manual with tips and tricks

Hydro Paper

Sulphurized semi-permeable paper with high-strength grammage and a semi-translucent finish. It permits the absorption of water without letting paint through. Has right-angled corners to fit well with the GSW Wet Palette.

Size:130x180mm

Hydro Foams

High-performance hydro foam pads. High-thickness hydrophilic foam for increased fluid retention, whilst preventing wrinkles when drying out.

Treated by Sanitized® to prevent mould and impurities, ensuring their longevity and capability to be reused. This treatment is not infinite, so it will lose effectiveness against fungi with time, water changes, and high temperatures. There is no minimum or maximum date from which the fungi will be generated, but good conservation will extend its effectiveness for many months.

Size:125x175mm

✅ This is for you if...

You paint miniatures with acrylics and your paint constantly dries out on the palette.
You create color mixes and need them to last throughout the entire session without remixing.
You paint in a warm or dry environment where evaporation is a major issue.
You want a high-quality, affordable wet palette that includes a generous supply of refills (50 sheets) from day one.

❌ This is NOT for you if...

You use enamels, oils, or non-acrylic paints – It is strictly designed for acrylics.
You need a much larger workspace for batch-painting many figures at once.
You prefer disposable or ceramic palettes and don't mind paint drying quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Wet Palette

How long do the paper sheets last?

Each sheet can last for several painting sessions. When the paint starts to oversaturate the paper or the surface begins to pill or tear, it’s time for a replacement. With 50 sheets included, you're set for many sessions.

Are they mold-resistant?

Yes. The Green Stuff World Wet Palette features Sanitized® treatment, which significantly delays the appearance of mold for months. While not permanent—since water changes and high temperatures reduce effectiveness—proper care (drying between long breaks and changing the water) will extend its lifespan. Using official refills every 6–8 months helps restore protection.

Can I leave the paint in it overnight?

Yes. With the lid closed and the elastic band secured, the paint can stay moist for days or even weeks. Most painters resume their work the next day without issues as long as the sponge remains damp.

Does it work for airbrushing?

No. This palette is designed for brush painting and standard acrylic paints. Airbrushing requires different thinning ratios, where hydrating paint is unnecessary.

Can dry brush paint be put on a wet palette?

No, for dry brushing, a dry brush palette is recommended because the technique requires a more controlled paint load and less moisture to avoid ruining the effect.

What paper should be used for a wet palette?

Green Stuff World's semi-permeable parchment paper is specifically designed for wet palettes. It allows moisture from the sponge to pass through, but not so much that the paint turns into soup. If the paper is too thick or too absorbent, the paint may dry too quickly or dilute unevenly.

Can a wet palette be used with contrast paints?

No, the extra moisture from a wet palette can dilute the formula and alter its behavior. Dipping Inks are designed to be used directly from the pot.

Does the wet palette dilute the paint?

Yes, it can dilute it slightly, but its main goal is to keep the paint fresh for hours. If you need to dilute the paint further, add distilled water, a medium, or a thinner.

How much water should be put in?

Just enough to dampen the sponge, but without leaving free-standing water on the paper's surface. You can use your fingers to spread the water evenly across the palette and ensure you don't overdo it.

How to clean the wet palette sponge?

Wash it in the sink with lukewarm water and mild soap, rinsing it by hand several times to flush out any paint residue. If necessary, gently scrape off any cured acrylic paint.

I've been a wet palette user for about 5 years now, and this one is great. I love the sponge material and the paper that came with it. The box seems sturdy, and well put together. It seals nicely but not to tight. I own palettes from two other companies, but I think they are going to be sitting on the sidelines. Some might think that it is a little small, but I like the compact size. Thanks for putting out a great product.
