Review: For what it is . . . - Quin Magenta (PR122) is the primary pigment of this paint according to AI (see below). But the quantum boost of color is due to an added flourecent die. This, unfortunately, risks the intense chroma to fade under UV, temperature stress, etc. When used as a high point in a value\chroma scale it works wonders but your work may look a little less amazing after some time. As for me, I'll take it, since there is nothing in my paint box that can kick so hard. I wonder if using a UV shielding coating would help without killing the intensity. So, limitted use, maybe, but it's cool to experience this chromatic super power even if it's short lived. Excerpt from the cloudy brains of GPT\Copilot: Holbein's Quinacridone Opera oil paint typically contains a combination of pigments, including a fluorescent dye. The main pigment is Quinacridone Magenta (PR122), which is known for its vibrant and intense magenta color. This pigment is often paired with a fluorescent dye to enhance the brightness and create the distinctive, vivid color characteristic of Quinacridone Opera.Here is a typical composition: PR122 (Quinacridone Magenta): This is the primary pigment, providing the base color. Fluorescent Dye: Added to intensify the brightness and luminosity of the paint, giving it a unique glowing effect.
Review: Brightest pink on the market - Why did you pick this product vs others?: Gorgeous color. It is slightly darker than a true fluorescent pink but still bright and punchy with a little titanium white. I swatched it next to similar colors so the difference can be seen for those wondering. Definitely worth the price!
