Grumbacher Pre-Tested Oil Paint has long stood for professional quality oil color. Each color swatch has been tested for masstone and mixability, and has been painted by hand. It is further tested by our staff for characteristics such as lightfastness, drying properties, pigment dispersion and viscosity. Draw downs are compared and formulas are altered to ensure that our customers receive the best oil color at the best price. Truly a professional paint, the majority of our colors are single pigment with superior tinting strength and have a lightfast rating of 1-excellent. 

Grumbacher Pre-tested Professional Oil Paint, Prussian Blue, is made with pure pigments milled in alkali-refined linseed oil. Prussian Blue is the first synthetic color of the industrial revolution, this enigmatic blue can create a large range of tints from one tube with no mixing. This oil paint is a rich blue with a green undertone and was popular among Japanese woodblock artists for seascapes. Prussian Blue is the same blue used in blueprints.
