It is very strong and can be diluted with very hot water. I just used it on our commercial studio floor and removed months of accumulated piles of oil pastels, tempera, pastels and heaven only knows what else creative people like to use when they make art. A few sprays resulted in clean floor for the first time in years. I am looking for a relatively fast way to clean individual dirty sticks.

I tend to work color next to color and am very careful about laying in my lights since they don't cover the darks well. Other than that I pull the colors as I need them. Working in an area and moving out from there. Is your question in regards to color theory? Like complements and such?

I edited your comment because it was buggering up my spacing and I'm sure that wasn't your intention. So why Orlando Bloom? Because of that I almost deleted you as spam. Thanks Vanessa.
