The Jacquard Transparent Exciter Pack is a curated collection of premium fluid acrylics designed for artists who demand sophisticated depth, smooth gradients, and professional versatility.

Application Instructions
- Preparation: Surfaces must be clean. Wash fabrics and leathers to remove factory waxes and conditioners. Lightly sand non-porous surfaces like plastic or metal for optimal grip.
- Layering: Apply in light, even coats. Because these colors are transparent, the final look is built through multiple passes. This allows for total control over color saturation.
- Finishing: Once your design is completely dry, apply the included Clear Varnish in light coats for added durability and a professional sheen.
Pro Tips for the Exciter Pack
- Base Layers: Transparent colors perform best on white or light-colored surfaces. Use the Transparent White to lighten tones or as a subtle mist to prep dark areas before adding color.
- Custom Blending: All colors in this pack are intermixable. Experiment by mixing Transparent Blue and Yellow to find your perfect custom green.
- Maintenance: Keep your airbrush performing perfectly by flushing with water between color changes. Never let transparent acrylics dry inside the nozzle.
