> 3 dayThis product seems to be designed well. It keeps paints from drying out. I have had paint in it for 2 days with no negative side effects. the brush holder insert was a happy surprise that I wasnt expecting. The wet palette came as part of a paint bundle so I didnt review it considering it wasnt the focus of the purchase, but I am truly happy with it.

Greater than one weekThis wet palette kept my paints wet for 5-6 hours while out, and kept them reusable when placed in my fridge for up to two days. No mold either! Be careful not to leave the palette out and open for several hours however, as the water in the palette will dry up causing your paints to dry as well.

> 3 dayHaving read the reviews for this product I think there are a few things that need to be covered. First, the intention of a wet palette like this is NOT to keep your paints fresh indefinitely. It is meant to give you the proper thinning of your paints as you apply them. It can also provide you a perfect area for dynamic color mixing. It will allow you to keep your custom mixes for a period of time with proper storage and care. The size is perfect, the included sponge and parchment paper work well to provide properly thinned paints and to preserve those paints over an extended painting session. If you are using the right paint it will keep them wet and workable for several days......IF you store it properly (lid held on with the elastic band in a cool place). Storing in my house, which I keep at 68 degrees the palette has retained moisture for 4+ days (by then my paints had separated but the palette was still good to go). The brush storage area is a nice bonus and works well with army painter brushes and has an area for normal round handle brushes as well. All in all its a good package, yes you can accomplish the same thing with some parchment paper, paper towels, and any plastic container, but this is a neat clean package that stores well. Its worth the money to me. Ignore the people complaining about the sponge being folded in half for shipping. it has zero impact and you wont even notice it once you wet the sponge for use. Chalk it up to one of those things people complain about for no real reason. Pros: It does the job well Has brush storage built in Solid construction that fits together well Includes two sponges and a lots of parchment paper (enough supplies for a LONG time) Will retain water and save paints overnight for several nights (though there are better wet palettes for 2x the price that can do it better) This is a sweet spot in value for the dollar Cons: You can DIY something that will work every bit as well as this for less than 5 dollars It would not have been hard for them to add a rubber o-ring to the lid which would allow it to keep even more moisture for longer periods of time Though it will stay wet for several days, most paints will suffer pigment separation after a few hours (blame the paint not the palette for that)

> 3 dayAbsurdly useful. Holds equipment (brushes, bluetack, etc.) and retains mixed paint which is the coolest thing. If you get a good color going, not only does it stay workable for days, but its easy to mix more- so easy! I thought painting would be a nightmare but its insanely satisfying and this is a big part of it!

> 3 daypaint dries within a hour with this palette. Maybe I have a defective one but it will not keep any paint moist for more then a hour with the top closed and the band on. I’m not impressed Gave 2 stars because the paper that comes with it works great(using in different palette)

> 3 dayI love this wet palette, I’m finally able to make my transitions smooth and texture smooth. No more chunky chalky paint jobs! It keeps your paints wet for weeks, though I tend to go through a sheet per session. Service is great too, the product arrived broken and I reached out to Army a painter and they immediately sent a replacement.
