Masking & Rubber Cement Pick-Up Tools

Daniel Smith Artist Masking Fluid

• Shipping charges may apply.

Daniel Smith Artist Masking Fluid is simple to use with the bottle applicator and the included fine-point applicator tips. Masking fluid can be directly applied to dry paper, enabling you to mask large areas of white paper, or previously coloured areas to protect them from watercolour washes, leaving crisp, clean edges. Removes easily when dry, with a rubber cement pick-up or by hand.

Masquepen

The Masque Pen is the perfect way to apply masking fluid in fine lines. You can draw in your fine tree branches, ship’s rigging, text, or whatever other fine details you wish to preserve, and then apply a broad sweeping wash. The details are easily recovered by rubbing off the masking fluid lines with your finger or soft eraser. The blue-green tint makes it easy to locate during removal, but does not stain the paper. Excellent for watercolours, crafts, and more. 0.8 mm nib and a 30 ml (1 fl oz) bottle of masking fluid.

Grafix Incredible White Mask

Grafix Incredible White Mask makes it easy to preserve the white of watercolour paper by applying it with a brush and allowing it to dry before painting. As it has no colour, it will not stain the surface. It can be tinted with any non-staining colour to contrast with whatever wash is being laid down. It is made of latex and is low-odour. Apply with a knife, brush, Incredible Nib, Color Shaper, Paint Eraser, or by spraying or spattering. Incredible White Mask is liquid enough to be airbrushed. Remove with a rubber cement pick up, by catching an edge and peeling, or even with your clean fingers. Useful for working with acrylics as well as watercolours.

Pebeo Drawing Gum Marker

Drawing Gum is a peelable solution used to keep areas of artwork free, for use with ink, watercolour, diluted gouache, and more.

It is used on paper, cardboard, Bristol board, acetate, wood, etc. using a brush or pen on parts of the work to be masked. Apply colour when the drawing gum is dry. Once the colours are completely dry just rub the gum with your finger or with an eraser to reveal the masked parts.

The Drawing Gum marker lets you use the product more easily, with a more precise application.

It must be primed before initial use, then:

• with the top on, shake the marker firmly to get the ball moving
• then, on a sheet of paper, press on the tip several times to soak it with paint.

If residue forms on the tip, you can remove excess material with your finger. It must be stored horizontally with the cap closed, and can be kept for 12 months after it is first primed at moderate room temperature (15-25 °C).

The marker is an all-in-one tool. This single solution replaces the drawing gum bottle, the paint brush and the water container. This tool is very practical due to its easy handling, its small size suitable for children's hands and its use, which only requires you to choose a surface. It is a mobile product that can be taken everywhere.
