Product Change Announcement Pertaining to our Finest Quality High Viscosity and Liquid Lines

Re: Discontinued Transparent Pyrrole Red Light Pigment

Due to the unavailability of the Transparent Pyrrole Red Light pigment we are no longer able to produce the colour Transparent Pyrrole Red Light in our Finest Quality High Viscosity and Liquid Lines. This colour will be replaced with a new colour: Transparent Permanent Red Light.

Transparent Permanent Red Light will have virtually the same appearance as well as the same performance in masstone, undertone and lightfastness.

Pricing and product I.D. #’s of this new product will remain the same as it’s predecessor.
