Designed for professional artists, these 6x6 inch, 1/8 inch thick panels support multiple washes, lifting, and mixed media without buckling or pilling. Handmade in the USA with FSC-certified materials, Aquabord panels offer a stable, gallery-ready substrate ideal for watercolor, gouache, acrylic, and ink. ## Description Ampersand Art Supply’s Museum Series Aquabord is a professional watercolor painting panel featuring a highly absorbent clay and mineral ground with a texture similar to cold press watercolor paper. Because this ground is applied directly to a rigid Hardbord panel rather than mounted paper, the surface behaves differently from traditional watercolor substrates. It captures vibrant color, supports controlled washes, and allows artists to build endless glazes or lift color back to white for clean highlights and adjustments. Since pigment interacts at the surface of the clay and mineral ground rather than sinking into paper fibers, watercolor washes can appear naturally bright and luminous. Aquabord withstands repeated washes, glazing, and lifting without surface pilling or swelling. The rigid, warp resistant Hardbord core stays perfectly flat under heavy water application and requires no stretching, taping, or mounting. Artists can paint edge to edge without tape borders, and the panel remains completely stable during detailed work. The durable, portable design makes Aquabord ideal for both studio use and plein air watercolor painting. Once the artwork is complete, the panel can be sealed to allow watercolor or gouache art to be displayed without glass, creating a clean and modern presentation. Cradled profiles provide a finished look that can hang directly on the wall, and sealed Aquabord panels up to 1 1/2"" deep fit beautifully in Ampersand Floaterframes and Duoframes. Each panel is protected with Archiva Seal to help prevent Support Induced Discoloration. Aquabord is acid free, artist safe, and versatile for watercolor, gouache, ink, casein, acrylic washes, and mixed media. Handcrafted in the USA using FSC-certified materials. ## Features - Clay coated hardboard panel comparable to watercolor paper - Colors can be lifted and erased while the surface is wet or dry - Colors retain their purity and vibrancy more than with fine papers - Will not tear-shrink-buckle even under heavy water application - Use for gouache, acrylic, and ink too! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0027A78GK | | Best Sellers Rank | #18,066 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #20 in Wood Art Boards | | Brand Name | Ampersand Art Supply | | Color | Flat Profile | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (665) | | Item Dimensions L x W | 6"L x 6"W | | Item Type Name | Museum Series Aquabord | | Item Weight | 12 ounces | | Manufacturer | Ampersand Art Supply | | Manufacturer Part Number | CBT066 | | Material Type | Hardwood | | Model Number | CBT066 | | Number of Items | 4 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Paint Type | Watercolor | | Shape | rectangular | | Size | 1/8 Inch, 6" x 6" - Pack of 4 | | UPC | 707310550668 | | Unit Count | 4 Count | | Warranty Description | A_gen_tax. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Ampersand Art Supply - **Color:** Flat Profile - **Item Weight:** 12 ounces - **Material:** Hardwood - **Product Dimensions:** 6"L x 6"W ## Images ![Ampersand Aquabord Panel for Watercolor and Gouache, 1/8 Inch Depth, 6X6 Inch, Pack of 4 (CBT066) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611MHcV+6GL.jpg) ![Ampersand Aquabord Panel for Watercolor and Gouache, 1/8 Inch Depth, 6X6 Inch, Pack of 4 (CBT066) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51-t3ocvuEL.jpg) ![Ampersand Aquabord Panel for Watercolor and Gouache, 1/8 Inch Depth, 6X6 Inch, Pack of 4 (CBT066) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41B-6RlzZnL.jpg) ![Ampersand Aquabord Panel for Watercolor and Gouache, 1/8 Inch Depth, 6X6 Inch, Pack of 4 (CBT066) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61uKjZFJ8dL.jpg) ![Ampersand Aquabord Panel for Watercolor and Gouache, 1/8 Inch Depth, 6X6 Inch, Pack of 4 (CBT066) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Xuv9VMGWL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/19518437-ampersand-aquabord-panel-for-watercolor-and-gouache-1-8-inch](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/19518437-ampersand-aquabord-panel-for-watercolor-and-gouache-1-8-inch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
