## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between Basics and Professional paints?**
A: Liquitex Basics and Professional paints differ in pigment load, consistency choices, and range of colors. Liquitex Basics paints strike a balance between affordability or quality, being more economical due to the lower pigment content.

**Q: Are Basics paints different opacities, like your Professional range?**
A: Liquitex Basics paints also have different opacity levels. Check the label for the square symbol: a black square means opaque, an empty square means transparent, and a half-filled square means semi-opaque (⬕)

**Q: Can I get different consistency of Liquitex Basics paint?**
A: Liquitex Basics paints maintain a consistent medium viscosity across all colors for versatility. We also offer Basics Acrylic Fluid for a more fluid viscosity, and Mediums which adapt the character of the paint, changing viscosity and texture.

**Q: Why would I use Liquitex Basics Acrylic Fluid product in addittion to Liquitex Basics Acrylic**
A: Liquitex Basics Acrylic Fluid offers artists a paint that is more fluid and flowing. This viscosity can be beneficial when covering large surfaces quickly, as the fluid nature allows it to spread evenly without leaving visible brushstrokes.
