Product Questions and Answers

Ask a Question

What is the difference between cold-pressed and hot-pressed watercolor paper?

- Asked by Diane on 02-Jul-13

Answer

Hot-pressed means the paper has been pressed with hot rollers during its manufacture. Hot-pressed paper has a smooth surface with little to no tooth. It's well suited for precise detail and illustration. And because it is fine-grained, it's also good for even applications of color. Cold-pressed paper is made with cold rollers. It has a slightly textured surface that's perfect for mediums such as watercolor and charcoal that require some tooth.

I have used a couple of different papers, but Arches is superior to everything else!

Rated by: Mary G. in Winston Salem, NC

Arches Paper is excellent for watercolor, gouche, acrylics, and silkscreen printmaking, The texture is just enough to hold paint without being intrusive. It is a good all-around paper. The paper is tough enough to soak un-sucessful watercolor pieces in hot water for removal of excess paints for a fresh start. This feature alone makes Arches Paper a great investment. Glue stick well to the paper thus making it useful for collage work. I have prints that I made on Arches Paper in the 70's. The paper has not yellowed nor deteriorated in any way. I am most pleased with this finely crafted product and recommend it for beginners and advanced professional artists.

The best. This was my first time working on Arches. I like the way the watercolor takes to the paper and the ease of lifting it off without harming the paper.
