do anybody know a type of paint that is call placa or plaque?

Question

I used this paint once a long time ago, is idea to use on canson paper, but I can remember it name.

Answer 1

I think it's gouache... that seems to ring a bell from my high school days... gouache or designers' gouache is opaque watercolour. Many companies (Winsor & Newton, Lukas, Rowney etc, and a German company Pelikan) make gouache, check it out.

Hope someone corrects me if I'm wrong...

OK I found it, made by Pelikan, its casein-based, so I was close...
