Winsor & Newton Griffin Alkyd Fast Drying Oil Paint offers a faster-drying alternative to traditional oils, without sacrificing workability or quality. Ideal for artists who want the flexibility of oil paint with shorter drying times, Griffin Alkyd colours remain usable for 4–8 hours and become touch dry in 18–24 hours.
Faster Drying Time
Originally developed in response to the fast-drying nature of acrylics, Griffin Alkyd was launched in 1976 as a true oil-based paint that dries more quickly. The use of alkyd resin (a polymerised vegetable oil) provides a smooth, consistent finish while allowing you to overpaint and layer in the same session — without waiting days between stages.
Versatile Oil Paint for Expressive Techniques
With a thick, pigmented texture and fluid handling, Griffin Alkyd can be used straight from the tube or thinned with traditional oil mediums. It offers a higher level of transparency compared to conventional oils, making it ideal for glazing techniques with increased clarity and depth.
Key Benefits
- Touch dry in 18–24 hours, workable for 4–8 hours
- Ideal for impasto and glazing in a single painting session
- Dries to a more reflective surface with smoother finish
- Consistent drying time across all colours
