Complete guide: Fusion drawing brush Opaque Gray Extra Light 15 ml
Fusion Opaque Gray Extra Light is a water-based liquid ink in a 15 ml bottle, declared for drawing — the lightest shade in the 5-tone Opaque Gray series (Extra Light, Light, Medium, Dark, Extra Dark). As a pre-dispersed gray, it delivers the same shade every time, eliminating the need for manual black dilution. The formula contains organic pigments, distilled water, witch hazel, and alcohol, is 100% vegan and filler-free, and its delicate tone is designed for bright areas, subtle highlights, and fine transitions in grayscale work.
How to use
- Upon receipt, check the bottle and seal integrity; do not use a product with an open cap or altered appearance.
- Shake the bottle vigorously for about one minute before each use to fully homogenize the pigment.
- Pour only the needed amount into a separate container (e.g., disposable caps) — never work directly from the bottle and never pour surplus back in.
- Use the Extra Light shade for the brightest areas of your work: subtle highlights, illuminated surfaces, and fine light transitions.
- For a complete gray gradient, combine it with the other shades in the series (Light, Medium, Dark, Extra Dark), building values from light to dark.
- Close the bottle tightly immediately after pouring to limit evaporation and contamination of the contents.
- Store the product at temperatures between 10 and 32 °C, away from direct sunlight.
Tips from us
- Test the shade on a sample before using it in the final work — Extra Light is a very light tone, and the actual intensity is only visible after application.
- As a pre-dispersed gray, the shade remains identical from session to session; keep the same series for the entire work to ensure uniform transitions.
- The 15 ml format is suitable for testing or completing your palette without a large investment.
- You can combine Extra Light with shades from the Opaque Blue series for custom gray-blue tones.
- Note the date of first opening on the bottle and periodically check the smell and consistency — any visible change is a sign to stop using it.
- Controlled pouring from the bottle helps you dose exactly what you need; pour a little and top up, rather than discarding surplus.

Frequently asked questions
How light is the Extra Light shade compared to the rest of the series?▾
It is the lightest (first) shade in the Opaque Gray series, which includes 5 tones: Extra Light, Light, Medium, Dark, and Extra Dark. It is designed for subtle highlights, illuminated areas, and fine light transitions, and when used together with the other shades in the series, it allows you to build natural gray gradients with harmonious value transitions.
Can I use this ink for tattoos?▾
The declared purpose of this product is drawing, not tattooing. Use for any purpose other than stated is strictly at the consumer's own risk — the seller assumes no liability in case of use for another purpose. If you need a product for a specific use, always check the declared purpose before purchase.
Why would I choose a pre-dispersed gray instead of diluting black myself?▾
Pre-dispersed grays from the Opaque Gray series eliminate the variability of manual dilution: each shade is factory-calibrated, so you get exactly the same tone every time you open the bottle, regardless of session or operator. With manual black dilution, proportions inevitably differ from mix to mix, leading to inconsistent tones.
How should I store and maintain the ink properly?▾
Store the bottle tightly closed at temperatures between 10 and 32 °C, away from direct sunlight. Shake it vigorously for about one minute before each use to redistribute the pigment evenly. Always pour into disposable containers and never pour surplus back into the bottle — this avoids contaminating the entire contents. If you notice changes in smell, color, or consistency, stop using it.
Is it a vegan product?▾
Yes. According to the manufacturer, the formula is 100% vegan and cruelty-free: it contains organic pigments, distilled water, witch hazel, and alcohol, with no animal-derived ingredients and no fillers.
Can it be mixed with other Fusion shades?▾
Yes. Extra Light primarily integrates with the other four shades in the Opaque Gray series for natural value transitions. Additionally, according to the manufacturer, it also blends well with shades from the Opaque Blue series to achieve custom gray-blue tones with varying levels of blue in the mix.
