Most black black!!!
I LOVE Mars Black. It’s a deeper, richer black than Ivory black. What’s up with a black called “ivory?” Then again Mars isn’t black. Who names these colors anyway??? ANYWAY, this is a gorgeous color and the only black I use. And Golden makes such nice acrylic paint. Perfect for painting the sides of my canvases as well as using in my paintings. If you haven’t tried Mars Black do it!

Gorgeous
I’ve been using latex paint for the last several years. Then applied a high quality sealer over my finished paintings. Finally I have gotten to the point that my work work has steadily been selling. I promised myself that at some point once I was selling I would invest in nice paints. Oh my. These are gorgeous paints. Everything about this product is worth the money. The only reason I am not giving five stars is because if you are a beginner or like me no experience using high quality mediums then this paint is quite thick. Once you figure out how to use properly then it is the best! You won’t go back to what you were using before you used this. And your paintings are going to definitely reflect it.

Best overall paint
Best coverage better than other paints. Golden products are thick and able to cover w/o having to repeat applications like the cheaper brands.

Great Paint
This is the best paint that I use for my work. This item came super fast and I was back in business. I love the bigger sizes versus the smaller tubes.

Great Product!
Golden products are simply the best. I've been using Golden products for about 40 years, and have never been disappointed.

Request propper packaging. First jar was delivered in an envelope. A mess.
Thick and creamy.

Golden paints are my favourite brand of acrylic paint. This selection took a while to reach Ontario and arrived by registered mail. (not sure why)...Happy with product but perhaps seller can find a faster more efficient method of shipping? This artist was out of black paint and chose this product for the fair price-- with no idea how long it would take to get to Ontario --which is why it is 4 stars.

Golden is amazing. I bought this 8 years ago and used every drop. Was thrilled to get a new jug of it. I love this Mars Black... I could stare into it all day. Who said watching paint dry was boring?
