Golden Heavy Body Acrylic – Quinacridone Crimson *discontinued
This Golden Heavy Body acrylic is a mixture of two Quinacridone Pigments. Quinacridone Crimson offers artists a very deep, semi-transparent red that reveals more warmth than intensity in tints and glazes. *This color has been discontinued by the supplier. Get it while you can!
How to mix a replacement mixture for discontinued Quinacridone Crimson:
Unfortunately, there is no perfect replacement for Quinacridone Crimson at this time. However, a blend of Transparent Red Iron Oxide (PR101), Quinacridone Magenta (PR122) and Phthalo Green BS (PG7), as shown here, should get you into a similar range.
