I'm not sure but i think he mostly used oils.
Magritte himself never wanted to explain his paintings. Surrealist painters often use dreams trying to reach their subconscious level. Consequently there may not be any intelligible explanations of surrealist paintings.

René Magritte often employed a muted color palette characterized by earthy tones, soft blues, and grays, which contribute to the surreal and dreamlike quality of his work. He frequently used contrasting colors to highlight specific elements within his compositions, drawing attention to the juxtaposition of ordinary objects in unusual contexts. His use of light and shadow also adds depth and dimension to his paintings, enhancing their enigmatic nature.

Magritte used a highly illusionist painting technique to make the viewer think about the real object and the painted imitation of the object. In his painting "The lovers", he uses realistic painting techniques and questions the sense and meaning of the work.
