Colorations Tempera Paint Gallon - 6 Colours, Washable Non-Toxic Set for Classrooms & Murals

This six‑colour gallon set from Colorations gives classrooms, community centres, and home studios a dependable, easy‑to‑clean paint option for large‑scale art activities. Each gallon contains a washable, non‑toxic tempera formula designed to deliver bold colour coverage while being practical for repeated use and quick cleanup. The set is intended for tempera painting, mixed media projects, and hands‑on learning where quantity and ease matter.

How do these tempera paints perform for group art projects?

The gallon sizes are built for repeat sessions and multiple students, offering consistent colour and smooth coverage across paper, cardboard, and craft surfaces. Their thick, creamy body spreads evenly and dilutes predictably with water for washes or lighter tones.

• Six vivid colours ready for mixing and colour lessons
• Gallon quantities reduce frequent refills during class
• Works well on poster board, construction paper, and murals
• Mixes easily for custom shades or watered washes

Are these paints easy to clean from skin and fabrics?

Yes — the formula is designed to wash out of skin and most washable clothing with soap and water, making it practical for young artists and busy classrooms. For fabric stains, prompt laundering improves removal; dried stains may require pre‑treatment.

• Washable formula removes from skin with soap and water
• Most washable fabrics clean with regular laundering
• Quick cleanup from tables and hard surfaces with damp cloths
• Non‑toxic composition reduces cleanup concerns in group settings

What surfaces and techniques are best for these tempera paints?

These paints are versatile for traditional tempera techniques, school crafts, and mixed media. They adhere well to many porous surfaces and can be layered, sponged, or used with stencils for classroom projects and displays.

• Ideal for paper, poster board, cardboard, and canvas board
• Suitable for brushwork, sponge printing, and stencil applications
• Can be thinned with water for watercolour‑like effects
• Good for collaborative murals and large format work

How does the gallon format affect storage and use?

Gallon bottles reduce per‑session restocking and are economical for high‑volume use, but they do require proper storage to keep paint fresh. Store upright with caps secured, in a cool, dry space away from freezing temperatures to maintain consistency.

• Large capacity minimizes refill frequency during classes
• Screw cap bottles seal to preserve paint between uses
• Store in cool, frost‑free locations to prevent separation
• Shake or stir before use if slight settling occurs

Who is this for: Educators, art program coordinators, child care centres, and families that need a budget‑friendly, washable tempera solution for frequent group activities will find this Colorations gallon set especially useful. It’s also suited to artists and hobbyists tackling murals, set pieces, or any project where generous amounts of consistent colour are required without complex cleanup.
