Here at ARTdiscount we offer a variety of affordable System 3 paints from individual 59ml tubes, to giant 2.25ltr tubs. We also sell many box sets offering different palettes, from ‘Starter’ sets to ‘Jumbo’ sets!
System 3 water-soluble Acrylic Paints are made from high quality pigments, their superior pigment loading allows for them to be thinned with water to pale washes or used directly from the pot. Either way they dry quickly and form an insoluble film. Reliable coverage, intermixable, great colour finish, with little colour shift. Can be used with many different mediums to change viscosity, handling and finish. Fresh out of the tube it has a soft body handling and for those who require a thicker viscosity we also sell the System 3 Heavy Body Acrylic paint.
System 3 can be used for Painting, Textile Printing, Screen printing on paper and now System 3 paints can also be used for Lino and Block relief printing! Mixed with the right medium, System 3 paints have become even more versatile!

Thanks for interesting and helpful article. Is there any difference between a general textile medium to mix with acrylic paints for using on fabrics (for instance with gelli plate printing or wood blocks, or Lino)) and the screen printing medium mentioned here?
