Mars Black is an opaque black with a strong and cool masstone, a slightly warm tint, and a warm brown undertone. It is not as black as Ivory Black, but it dries more quickly and has three times the tinting strength. Mars Black is normally the only black available in acrylic form and that is safe to over paint. It can be used in all media without reservation and is widely used as an alternative to Lamp Black and Ivory Black.
Mars Black is very lightfast with excellent permanence.
The word Mars refers to the Roman god of iron and war. Mars Black was developed in the early 20th century from inorganic, synthetic iron oxide.
PR3-Toluidine Red
organic, monoazo
Toluidine Red is a semi-opaque, yellowish red pigment with high tinting strength.
Toluidine Red has very good lightfastness.
Toluidine Red or Toluidine Scarlet has been used in inks, textiles, artist materials, and plastics.
PR168-Indanthren Brilliant Orange
organic, anthraquinone
Indanthren Brilliant Orange is insoluble in water.
The lightfastness of anthraquinone vat dyes is consdered to be good, and may be improved upon by the use of protective coatings to avoid exposure of the dye to oxygen.
Indanthren Brilliant Orange has been used as a vat dye for textiles.
PR254-Pyrrole Red
organic, aminoketone
Bis-(p-chrolopheny)-1. 4-diketopyrrolo(3. 4-c)pyrrole
Pyrrole Red is opaque and has strong covering power. According to manufacturer Ciba, which uses the trade name Irgazin Red, it is a “clean, highly saturated mid shade red with high temperature resistance, excellent color strength, outstanding chemical, solvent and bleed resistance, and good weatherfastness.”
Pyrrole Red is considered to have excellent lightfastness among organic pigments in its class. Tests in industrial applications have given it scores of 7-8 on the Blue Wool Scale.
Pyrrole Red, used as an automotive paint and as a colorant in plastics, was developed as one of a range of pigments to replace lead based pigments. In art materials, it is often used as a synthetic and lightfast replacement for carmine, a laked pigment that was originally produced from the body of the cochineal insect. It is also used to replace the older naphthol reds, organic red pigments that are sometimes only marginally lightfast and weatherfast.
