The result is cleaner color mixing and a range of sheen and opacity across the line - from glowing, transparent colors ideal for glazing to dense, opaque colors providing excellent coverage. Review: Golden Acrylic Paints worth the money. Nice sized tube. - I originally gave 4 stars. When looking back, I realized it was because I’d bought Mars Black instead of Ivory Black. Big difference in sheen and color. Golden is my preferred acrylic to use. Always check the square box that indicates its opaqueness. Acrylics are true to the adage you get what you pay for. Golden Acrylics are worth the money. Review: Outstanding coverage - I use black acrylic paint to cover the wooden cradles on my canvases before I frame them in floaters. I was previously using some cheap Winton acrylic in Ivory black and it was so thin, it took 2 coats to cover. This paint is thick and has excellent coverage. I only needed 1 coat i’ve primed light wood and it looks perfect! Mars Black is also more opaque, which helps considerably. Not cheap but worth the investment. ## Features - Somewhat warmer than Carbon Black, made with black iron oxide. - ASTM Lightfastness I (Excellent); Opaque; Pigment(s): PBk11 (Synthetic Black Iron Oxide); Vegan - EXCEPTIONALLY SMOOTH, THICK TEXTURE retains brushstrokes and palette knife marks - FORMULATION - Each color is formulated uniquely depending on the nature of the pigment resulting in a range of sheen and opacity across the line - Made in the USA with globally sourced materials by an employee-owned company with more than 40 years of experience making paint for professional artists ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B015VG48JG | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #40,296 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #908 in Art Paints | | Brand Name | GOLDEN | | Color | Mars Black | | Color Code | Black | | Container Type | Tube | | Coverage | Excellent | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars (192) | | Dry Time In Hours | 1 | | Finish Type | Semi-Gloss | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Volume | 5 Fluid Ounces | | Item Weight | 2.4 ounces | | Manufacturer | Golden Artist Colors | | Model Name | Heavy Body Acrylics | | Model Number | GD1200-3 | | Paint Type | Acrylic | | Part Number | GD1200-3 | | Size | 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Fade Resistant | | Specific Uses For Product | Interior | | Surface Recommendation | Canvas | | UPC | 738797120037 | | Unit Count | 5 Fluid Ounces | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** GOLDEN - **Color:** Mars Black - **Finish Type:** Semi-Gloss - **Item Volume:** 5 Fluid Ounces - **Paint Type:** Acrylic - **Size:** 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - **Special Feature:** Fade Resistant - **Specific Uses For Product:** Interior - **Surface Recommendation:** Canvas - **Unit Count:** 5 Fluid Ounces ## Images ![GOLDEN Heavy Body Acrylics, Mars Black, 5 fl. oz.

Nice sized tube. *by D***C on January 16, 2026* I originally gave 4 stars. When looking back, I realized it was because I’d bought Mars Black instead of Ivory Black.
