Look. If you paint with acrylics and you have not tried GOLDEN Heavy Body yet, this is your sign and we are not sorry for the intervention. Neutral Gray N5 (S1) is part of the range that put GOLDEN on the map in 1980, and it genuinely keeps getting better. A 59ml tube of thick, richly pigmented acrylic with a buttery, knife-holds-its-peak consistency. The kind of paint that makes your mark-making feel like it actually counts for something.

Neutral Gray N5 uses a carefully balanced pigment blend (PW6, PBk9, PBr7). Formulated to hit exactly that hue while keeping every professional working property the range is known for.

Neutral Gray N5 is fully opaque. What you put down, stays down. Strong, decisive, not messing about. Perfect for solid coverage and for painting over your earlier experiments.

Lightfastness is rated ASTM I — the highest possible. Your work will hold its colour for well over 100 years under normal indoor display conditions.
