How well would these hold up to watercolor washes?

I'm sorry, I don't really know. I bought these to use for Zentangles. Since they are fairly thick I think it would be worth your while to try them out b/c they are so inexpensive.

I have used Prismacolor Watercolor pencils and Derwent with paint brushes loaded with water. It works beautifully. I have not done a lot of layering of colors w/water or scrubbing. I'm not sure how they would hold up, although they are thick. It's worth a try, these are inexpensive and can be used for many art projects.

The coasters are fairly thick. I only had watercolor colored pencils at hand so i colored on the coaster and used a paintbrush and water to wash out the color. The surface dried fairly quickly and the color smoothed out. I wish I had some watercolors to try for a better answer but it is probably worth a gamble.

I have not used a water based medium on the paper, it is a thick paper so it could do well. Probably depend on how many layers of the medium is applied.

I have only washed them once in my washer on delicate. Since then I have been just washing them with soap and water while on my hands and it has been great! I hang them to dry on my drying rack.

Yes, I have washed them with my other whites and have used Clorox bleach on them :) So far they are holding up well for inexpensive towels. The only draw back is that they are thin but, in truth, I am comparing them to thicker Turkish white towels I purchased from Lands End :) otherwise, these are great for the price!

I've washed mine a few times. Have yet to experience any wear and tear. My friend washed his twice a week and they are still good as new.

I use them for mixed media and art journaling. They are pigmented and I doubt if they would come completely out if you get them on clothes and try to wash it. Go to the Faber Castell site and they should have a contact us option and ask your question. It will depend on what you want them to be washed from like hands, clothes and etc.

I have washed them inside a couple toys, though not many times yet, and it seems to be fine. They seem pretty watertight, so I'm not too worried about them and mine are still intact from what I can hear, so I would assume it's fine to wash them.

I have been using these for four months and they have went through many machine washings...they are still holding up well without any leaks...worth the money

Absolutely!! I've had them for almost 2 yrs now and they are completely exposed to the elements. So far, no complaints. They have kept color after two major winter storms and steamy hot summers.

I find them fairly quick to dry. I haven't hand washed though, only machine. They do come virtually dry from the machine so if you have a warmish spot to put them overnight I think they would be fine. I would test them at home first, and take two pairs so you can rotate if they are still damp.

I've had them for over 6 months and use them daily....no problems with staining (I do hand-wash, not dishwasher so I don't know if that would change things). I love them! And they're sturdy.

I've found them to be very sturdy, sharp and wash well. When the dishwasher is done, I take them out and wipe them dry. They have been awesome!

Throw them in the wash with anything else. I've had no issues with color fastness or losing elasticity

They're definitely easy. And also durable! I've accidentally run a roll or two through the wash, and they've held up!

Can't advise on fabric paint. Advised not to tumble dry, but did anyway. Slight shrinkage. I use the bags for groceries, including meat, so they get washed after shopping. Pleased with quality.

I Hand wash, the palm side with the tacky surface d laminates very easily. I don't think they would stand up to a washer and dryer.

I haven't washed them but they appear to be heavy duty enough to withstand regular washings. They slide off of the stainless steel hanging bars.

As for now it seems to be okay. I've put them through 2 washes and so far so good. I can't say how they are going to do in a few months, but from the looks of how they are doing now... they should be okay. I hope that helps. Best....
