Welcome to the Wonderful World of
Nicholson's Peerless Transparent Watercolors
Peerless Dry Sheet or Peerless Liquid Watercolors can be used for original art work, photography (black & white or color), slides, greeting cards, rubber stamping, and many other projects. They are absolutely transparent and self blending. Peerless flows evenly and smoothly and when combined will form an unlimited number of shades and tints. Our colors are vibrant and pure - unlike any other watercolor paint.

Basic Instructions
- Product is highly concentrated in both the sheet and liquid form.
- Either may be used for the same applications.
- Intensity is controlled by adding more or less water.
- Applied using brushes, Q-tips, cotton balls , or sponges, etc.
- For Dry Sheet Form.
- Moisten applicator with water and touch sheet to pick up color. Dry sheet form does not require large quantities to discharge the color.
- Remover color for the darkest side of the sheet.
- When finished let individual sheets dry before storage.
- For Liquid Form.
- The colors are at full concentration right out of the bottle.
- Colors can be diluted as needed after removing from the bottle.
- For best results on any suface other than photos, do not dilhute more than 50%. Over dilhution may cause permature fading.
For Photo Retouching
- Peerless works on all types of photo paper (matte, glossy, or sepia tones, etc.) by directly applying color from the liquid or sheet form.
- No affixates are necessary on the photo.
- When applying Peerless use smooth strokes as if you were painting. In other words, don't dab on the color or it will have light and dark tones on the photo.
- Detail work should be done with small brushes (size "00" or "000"). For other areas larger brushes should be used.
- When tinting black & white photos, colors should be diluted with water before applying.
- When colorizing a photo, a higher intensity of color should be used.
- When Peerless Transparent Water Color dries it becomes part of the emulsion and does not distort the photo.
- Special Note For Glossy Photographs (Black & White or Color): Less water is required when applying tint or color to photos.
