Explanations of the signs from left to right +++ = degree of lightfastness 3 = opacity 3 = price series
Example: Permanent red M +++ = 100 years completely lightfast under museum conditions (all 120 colours) 1 = transparent (25 colours)
++ = 25 – 100 years lightfast under museum conditions 2 = semi-transparent (20 colours) = also available in tube of 150 ml
+ = 10 – 25 years lightfast under museum conditions 3 = semi-opaque (35 colours)
+++ 377 33 o
= 0 – 10 years lightfast under museum conditions 4 = opaque (40 colours) PR255 = pigments used
PR255 The lightfastness of all these colours has been tested in accordance with ASTM
Letter behind the colour name Standards D4303.
L = light, M = medium, D = deep
