Games Workshop Citadel - Pot à Eau

GW quality pot great companion for hobbies.

Sure beats using paper cups! Works great and has textured bottom to clean your bristles.

It gets the job done

Looks awesome, grooves help clean brushes, and shape stops it from tipping over. It’s uniqueness also stops me from confusing it with my drink and taking a swig of paint. It also stops your girlfriend from getting mad that paint stains your other mugs. 10/10

This thing is great. You might be thinking Why should I bother paying $10 for something I can use an old mug for? It has a lot of really useful features. The ridges on the side and the bottom are terrific for keeping brushes clean, much better than just a strong swirl used to get me. The grooves on the side re-sharpen your brush. Its not magic: if you have an old crappy brush, its not going to suddenly spring back to new, but a quick swipe keeps a brush with a fine point from spreading out over a painting session. Lastly, the wide base keeps it from falling over easily. No one wants mixed paint stains all over their table.

Great product I use it all the time

Efficient

I just received this. Before, I just used a cheap plastic cup and didn’t think much of it, cleaning and throwing it away if it got too dirty on the bottom. Then I read the product description, features, and reviews of this Water Pot and realized that it might contain everything I need. The Pot has grooves on the bottom and sides to clean the brush. How neat! It has slots on the slide to sharpen the brush bristles into a point. Cool! These are neat features that an ordinary plastic cup doesn’t have and should help to make life easier and faster for the modeler. I always worried that my plastic cup left on my desk would tip over, even with a tray underneath. With this Water Pot, I’ve no worries whatsoever. Sure, it might be a tad expensive, but the design really does work. It’s about 3/4ths the size of a coffee mug so it’s large enough to clean brushes. I just place a piece of cardboard or notepad on top to prevent evaporation and have no fears that it would tip over if bumped.

If you have good brushes you care about, buy this water pot. It has ridges and fins inside the pot to help clean brushes. Ive seen a vast improvement in the longevity of my brushes just in changing to these Citadel Water Pots.

Im glad I spent the money. Ive used a lot of different & expensive water pots before and was skeptical before giving this a try, but this is the best water pot for acrylic painting Ive ever used. Very well thought design helps painters to clean their brushes thoroughly, particularly the thin brushe shapers molded into the cup.
