Winsor & Newton Colourless Art Masking Fluid

Winsor & Newton Colourless Art Masking Fluid is a removable liquid frisket designed to protect areas of paper while applying watercolour, ink, and water-based media. The colourless formula allows for clean, unobtrusive masking while preserving fine details, highlights, and untouched white paper throughout the painting process.

Formulated for smooth application and reliable removal, this latex-based masking fluid dries quickly to create a protective barrier resistant to watercolour washes and liquid media. Once dry, colour can be applied freely over masked sections before the fluid is gently removed to reveal crisp, clean paper beneath.

Its transparent appearance makes it especially useful for artists who prefer minimal visual interference while working on detailed illustrations, botanical painting, layered washes, and precision watercolour techniques.
