Airtight Palette System That Keeps Your Paints Fresh Longer

The Masterson Patented Sta-Wet System has become a studio essential for acrylic and water-based painters who want to keep their paint workable for extended periods. Developed over 25 years ago, this unique system uses a wet sponge and specially designed permeable paper to maintain a consistent level of moisture across your palette. When the lid is open, paints remain usable for hours, and once sealed, they can stay fresh for days—even weeks. This eliminates the need for constant palette cleanup and prevents costly paint waste between sessions.

The Sta-Wet system is also suitable for storing oil paints when used with the appropriate oil-compatible palette surface. Its airtight design makes it especially practical for professional artists and students who need a reliable way to manage their paints through longer projects or class schedules. Compatible accessories like New Wave Artist Palettes, sponge packs, and acrylic film refills are available separately for easy upkeep and customization.
