Painting wood with water-based paint: recommendations for surface treatment

Selection Tips

When buying acrylic it is very important to choose a composition for wood produced by trusted manufacturers. In this case, there will be no doubt about its high quality.

When planning to buy this or that acrylic paint, you should decide on the area of ​​its use, as well as on the functions that it should perform. Most often, it is the protective qualities of the products that are important for the buyer. The composition should not contain harmful substances: this is especially true for products for interior work.

The main criterion for buying paint is the scope of its use. Acrylic wood compounds can be used indoors: they create a uniform and smooth coating on interior items, furniture, floors, walls, stairs or other wooden structures. There are compositions for dyeing wood products outside. Such paints contain certain specific additives that improve products.

Preference should be given to products that meet the following requirements:

  • the composition should lie down in an even layer;
  • the content of non-volatile compounds should not be more than 75%;
  • frost resistance;
  • UV resistance;
  • the surface should dry no more than one and a half days.

Compliance with European quality standards is the main requirement for acrylic compositions for wood. High-quality products are odorless, so when choosing a paint, you should ask the seller for a quality certificate for the product.

For each acrylic paint, there are probes, which indicate the color that should be obtained as a result on the treated surface.

How to deal with factors that negatively affect the state of wood on the street

The staining process seems simple, but this is not true. In order for the paintwork material to last for a long time, not to peel off and to have a smooth surface, the surface must be properly processed. There are decorative staining methods that are full-fledged technologies. Due to their use, the tree is given one or another look.

If the bench is placed in the country, you don't have to bother with the decorative component, but for the garden near the house where a person lives permanently, this parameter plays an important role.

The coating on wood used outdoors does not last long, which is due to a number of reasons:

  • Direct sunlight causes heating and cooling of the surface, which is detrimental to certain types of paints.
  • Ultraviolet radiation from the sun gradually destroys the molecular structure of paintwork materials. The color changes (a process called burnout), microscopic cracks appear.
  • Precipitation - the paints and varnishes themselves do not suffer from them, but they all carry water, which penetrates into the wood through the same cracks or poorly painted areas. Water-soaked wood expands, causing the paint to crack even more if it has poor elasticity.
  • Subzero temperatures cause great damage. Firstly, the crust, freezing on the bench, violates the integrity of the material, filling the textured depressions on the material. Secondly, moisture that gets under the paint squeezes it out and tears it away from the tree.

The paint cracked due to structural changes in the wood

The same factors affect the state of the wood itself when it is so “exposed”. The material changes color to an unsightly gray and cracks due to changes in moisture.

Requirements for varnishes and paints

Based on the listed factors, the requirements for paints and varnishes are derived:

The elasticity of the coating shows how it will resist the tensile loads that the expanding timber exerts.

The more elastic the paint, the longer it will last

  • The material is hydrophobic - it should not allow moisture to penetrate the wood.
  • UV resistant. There are no such compositions - all paints, sooner or later, will be damaged. Another thing is that you need to choose a composition that will last as long as possible.
  • Opacity - this parameter determines how well the paint adheres to the substrate and fills in the smallest pores and cracks. The best paints create a dense coating even in one layer.

Interesting to know! For outdoor installation, many tree species are used, differing in density. Some of them have a high porosity (the same pine), which is why the paint is absorbed into the structure. To solve the problem, the tree must be properly prepared.
Varnish creates a waterproof film on the wood surface

Resistant to temperature changes. These and other characteristics can be found on the specific product label.

A well-executed painting should ensure the stability of the coating for a period of up to 5 years.

Varieties

When looking for paint for children's furniture, consider the terms of use, not personal preference. The basic factor is the type of surface, since metal and wooden furniture have their own, separate paints and varnishes

The most popular are acrylic paints, as their composition is environmentally neutral. This allows the paint to be used anywhere. After the liquid has evaporated, an elastic film forms on the treated surface. The composition of the paint includes a polymer that provides high-quality adhesion of the paint to the surface, as well as a polyacrylic dye of a fine fraction.

Fillers are responsible for the level of gloss and haze. Since wood requires protection, antibacterial fillers are also added to the paint. There are also additives on which the density and curing time of the paint depend. The good thing about acrylic paint is that it can be removed before it's completely cured. How to wipe off the paint? It is best to use warm water and a sponge. Acrylic paints are almost the only material that allows moisture to evaporate, but does not let it pass through itself. It turns out that the surface of the furniture will breathe. It does not matter with what intensity the paint will be used, since the color fixation lasts for tens of years. There is no need to think about how to remove the smell of paint, since acrylic paints practically do not have it. This means that furniture can be located in any room, even without ventilation. It is also worth saying about such types of paint as:

  1. Gouache and watercolors - they can be used to paint furniture. They can be used exclusively as a material for artistic painting. For the main background, it is better to use other types of tools. From the properties of the material, dissolution in water and burnout in the sun can be noted. Printed furniture should be kept away from water and sunlight. It is quite easy to wash the paint off. The advantage can be considered the relatively low cost of the material, due to which you can often experiment;
  2. It should be noted paints and enamels based on organic solvents - they can be combined into one group. Oil paints are outdated, as they do not last very long on the surface. On average, the term is approximately 3-5 years. But on the other hand, oil paints give a high-quality gloss;
  3. Automotive enamel (spray paint) may be suitable for furniture facades. It must be used if the facade is plastic or metal. Car paint is not recommended for wood furniture;
  4. Varnishes and impregnations can also be attributed to paints, as they can change the appearance of an object. Impregnants and additives for tinting are used already on the painted surface, then when it needs to be given a special look. As for varnishes, they, like paints, can be oil, acrylic, nitrocellulose. Both impregnations and varnishes can only be used if the furniture is wooden. They penetrate deeply into the structure of the tree, provide protection of wood fibers from pests;
  5. Silicone based water based paints are odorless and can be used to repair cracks. The coating will last for a long time, even if the furniture is in a room with a high level of humidity;
  6. As for the latex-based water-based paint, its properties can be compared with oil paint. But at the same time, it does not have a pungent smell. This paint can only be used in warm rooms, since at low temperatures the coating can begin to crack;
  7. Alkyd paints do not react to moisture in any way, and they cost an order of magnitude lower than water-based materials. Such a coating will not have a long service life, since the film will have a thickness of no more than 0.1 mm.

If acrylic paint is not suitable, you can opt for chalk paints. The recipe for chalk paint involves the use of an acrylic or latex mixture - it will act as a base. Plaster or grout for narrow joints can act as a fixer. Water is also added to the mixture. How to make chalk paint? Typically, the proportions of water and anchoring element are one to one, and paint is added as desired.

The point of creating chalk paint is that the material is unique in its versatility - chalk paint lays down on any surface with the same quality. It can be used for both chipboard and any other surface. The paint can be used without preliminary surface preparation.

Not all paintwork materials have sufficient adhesion to wood, therefore, its surface is pre-primed. Compositions are used on different bases, which are selected according to the finishing material. That is, if alkyd paint is used, then alkyd primer is used.

How to paint a wooden outdoor bench - use an antiseptic primer

Primers are inexpensive and have the following benefits:

  1. The consumption of paint is reduced, since it is less absorbed and lays down in an even thin layer.
  2. Due to the increasing adhesion, the paintwork material adheres to the tree better, which has a positive effect on its service life.
  3. Primed wood will not stain, as is often the case with low density species.
  4. Antiseptic soils kill microorganisms and prevent them from multiplying.
  5. Acrylate primers help smooth out surface imperfections.

We will not go deep into the peculiarities of the compositions, but we will give advice. Take soils on the basis from the same manufacturer as the selected paintwork materials, since the compositions of the materials will be "adjusted" to each other.

Artistic acrylic for decoration and painting

Art acrylic is sold in tubes or jars in art stores. The paint in the tube resembles oil paints in consistency, in cans the paints are more liquid and look like gouache.

To start painting furniture with acrylic paints, you need to buy a standard set of tubes in a package where the main colors are present. In the future, gaining experience when working with paints and colors, you will consciously and unmistakably choose what you need.

To decorate with acrylic paint, in addition to the main colors, you will need paints: ocher, burnt umber, natural umber, chrome oxide, olive, marsh, English red, Indian red, kraplak, Neapolitan yellow, Neapolitan blue, cobalt blue and whatever you like ! And be sure to whitewash - they are needed for mixing paints.

You will need acrylic artistic primer to cover wooden objects before painting. It comes in white and black and is sold in packages of different sizes. The amount of soil required will depend on the size of the furniture.Please note that the primer is applied in two layers.

Features of oil and acrylic paints

Oil base

Some 20-30 years ago, oil enamels completely dominated the market. Such solutions were used both for painting facades and indoors. The first serious competitor to the oil was nitro enamel, and finally the dominance of oil formulations was shaken after the start of mass production. water-based paints, primarily acrylic.

Oil paints and varnishes are produced on the basis of natural drying oil or its synthetic analogue, mixed with mineral pigments. To obtain paint, its components are ground until a homogeneous mixture is formed.

Today, oil-based paints and varnishes are rarely used, but sometimes the need for them arises, for the following reasons:

  1. Affordability allows painting large areas with oil paints at the lowest cost. Low cost is the main factor in the popularity of oil: as long as prices are low, there will be demand for such solutions.
  2. Resistant to the negative effects of moisture. The oil protects wood, concrete and metal surfaces from moisture penetration into their structure.
  3. Often, oil paint is chosen because the surface has already been painted with linseed oil. Not all home craftsmen are aware of the possibility of applying an acrylic composition to such a surface, and therefore they choose the simplest option - they buy an oil solution.
  4. The application of this paint and varnish material does not require any special knowledge and skills: you just need to dilute the composition with a solvent and stir.

Oil solutions also have serious drawbacks that limit their use:

  1. Not too many colors. Most often, the assortment of stores has up to 10-12 shades.
  2. Low coating strength. For this reason, the painted surface needs regular renovation (at least annually), which will require additional financial investment and labor costs.
  3. Toxicity of solutions. This category of paints is characterized by a specific and very persistent odor. If staining is carried out inside a building, you will need to organize high-quality ventilation. At the same time, during the drying period, the paint should be avoided in the room, so as not to get poisoned by toxic vapors.
  4. Long drying times. It will take at least 24-48 hours for the treated coating to dry completely. And this is under ideal environmental conditions (appropriate levels of humidity and temperature, as well as the presence of ventilation).

Acrylic base

Compositions based on acrylates are characterized by the following advantages:

  1. Compared to oil paints, acrylic paints are much more environmentally friendly, since they do not contain organic solvents. Since acrylic solutions are based on water, such paints are devoid of a pungent odor.
  2. A huge selection of colors and the finest shades. There is a possibility of ordering the desired color right in the store: the composition will be made in a special machine right in front of the customer's eyes.
  3. Resistance to moisture, ultraviolet radiation, temperature extremes, vapor resistance. As a result, acrylic can be used both indoors and for painting the facade.
  4. High surface durability. The coating becomes harder as it dries (evaporation of water).
  5. Fast drying time - only a few hours. Moreover, some formulations can dry for only an hour.
  6. Long service life of the coating. Compared to oil paint, acrylic is at least twice as durable.

The only significant drawback of acrylic is its cost. The quality is worth paying for, however.

Types of paints for pine furniture

To give the desired color and performance properties of pine furniture, several compounds are used.This is due to the fact that the tree requires certain processing due to its characteristics. However, the compositions listed below are used not only for this type of wood, but also for others. Remember, it's always worth checking to see if the previous coating will be compatible with the new one. So, let's analyze in order what and why should be used when painting pine furniture.

Toning. It is used to:

  • to hide surface defects or irregularities by coloring in a darker shade;
  • highlight the structure of the wood and improve its natural color;
  • make pine furniture look like a valuable wood;
  • get a color unusual for wood (red, blue, etc.).

Varnish or paint. Their purpose is:

  • to hide surface defects;
  • give the wood the desired color;
  • hide the structure and texture of wood (paint) or, conversely, emphasize (varnish).

Consider what types the compositions are divided into.

Water-borne paints and varnishes. Of their main advantages, one can single out the fact that they:

  • dry quickly;
  • as a rule, they do not emit harmful fumes (therefore, they can be used to paint furniture for children);
  • resistant to moisture;
  • convenient in tinting;
  • after drying, the paint layer is frost-resistant.

It is important to know that the varnishes and paints themselves should be stored in a warm room, since the compositions can deteriorate at low temperatures. As a result of painting on furniture made of pine or other wood, a topcoat (paint) or transparent (varnish) will be obtained.

On organic solvents (varnishes and enamels). They have a number of features:

  • resistant to moisture;
  • dry for a long time;
  • are sold at affordable prices;
  • may give off a strong, unpleasant odor during operation.

If furniture made of pine or other wood is painted with enamel, then the surface will be opaque, if varnished, then transparent.

All varnishes have a fairly high vapor permeability, and also leave the wood (not only pine) the ability to "breathe", namely to give and receive moisture from the environment. These formulations are great for new or well-preserved furniture. Varnishes contain substances that protect wooden furniture from deterioration and fading

Please note: when it is necessary to repeat the treatment, the previously applied coating does not need to be removed (unlike paint). A fresh coat can be applied to the old

Rules for the use of acrylic paint

The rules for using acrylic paintwork materials are quite simple:

  1. These products are divided into 2 categories - for interior and exterior use. The composition of the materials is practically the same. The difference is that the paint for external use contains special additives to protect against ultraviolet radiation, moisture and temperature changes. Based on this, there is no point in overpaying for it when planning work on finishing the interior surfaces of the premises.
  2. Before painting wood surfaces, it is advisable to treat them with a primer. This operation has a threefold meaning. First, the top layer of the wood itself is significantly strengthened. Secondly, the adhesion of the paint and the base on which it is applied is enhanced. Thirdly, when applying paintwork materials to a primer, material consumption is noticeably reduced, and this affects the construction budget.
  3. The color of the colored coating may differ significantly from that which is printed on the label. This is due to the fact that the saturation and brightness of the finish directly depends on factors such as the number of layers applied, the color and porosity of the base. Based on this, it is advisable to conduct a series of surface staining tests. You can get a true idea of ​​the final color only after the paint has completely dried.
  4. There is no need to purchase expensive equipment for applying acrylic paintwork materials. The spray gun is not always the best option.This device is good for finishing large areas with a complex texture. Small objects, stairwells with handrails, lattices and furniture are more practical to paint with a brush. For even floors, it is better to use a roller.
  5. It makes no sense to apply a thick layer of acrylic paint where it will not be exposed to mechanical stress. Only if the facade or wall is periodically scrubbed with a brush, you need to use a material with increased resistance to abrasion or apply it in 3-4 layers.

Wood painting technology

If after the repair and construction work there is a significant amount of acrylic paint, then there is no need to rush to dispose of it. The container must be sealed and stored. It is likely that some minor cosmetic repairs will be required after a while. Even after a few years, acrylic paint does not lose its characteristics. It is enough to mix it thoroughly with a mixer, and it is ready to work again.

Acrylic paints for wood - description

Acrylic paint for wood is distinguished by its excellent protective properties, providing wood structures with a long service life and a decorative finish. Until completely dry, it can be easily washed off with water if something went wrong in the work. And after complete drying, it creates a reliable protective layer that resists external influences well, and also shows itself well in conditions of high humidity and with sudden changes in temperature indicators.

Differs in a bright palette of shades that do not fade for a long time. Available in both matte and glossy finishes

Note! In addition, the paint is safe for the human body, odorless.

Acrylic paint for wood is distinguished by its excellent protective properties, providing wood structures with a long service life and a decorative finish.

What is included

Thanks to the constituent elements, the paint is characterized by its positive qualities. The base is water, which contributes to the uniform distribution of components in the solution and further even coating of surfaces.

In addition to the water base, the paint includes:

  • Acrylic is a transparent substance that hardly dissolves even at high temperatures. That makes it possible to work in a building, because an unpleasant odor is not exuded;
  • Plasticizers, will give the solution elasticity and flexibility. As a result, when the tree shrinks, cracks do not appear on the coating;
  • Hardeners, they are responsible for the time required for the drying of the paint layer;
  • Dyes, pigment is added in a finely ground state, which makes the resulting coating smooth and uniform;
  • Matting additives create a matte effect. Most often, this option is chosen for facade decoration and fences so that they do not form glare in the sun.

Acrylic is a transparent substance that hardly dissolves even at high temperatures.

Advantages and disadvantages

Acrylic enamels for wood have a number of positive qualities, but still several negative ones can be distinguished. Further details will be given about these qualities.

The advantages of enamels include:

  • Resistant to natural precipitation and long exposure to water;
  • A wide range of colors, distinguished by the fact that it does not lose brightness over time;
  • Covers products evenly;
  • Does not exude an unpleasant odor;
  • UV resistant;
  • "Breathable", which has a beneficial effect on the tree, it does not form fungus and mold;
  • Durable, 4-8 years depending on the brand;
  • Dries quickly.

Disadvantages:

  • Freezes in the cold, after that it can no longer be used;
  • Not resistant to some solvents;
  • Not compatible with other film-forming dyes;
  • Expensive.

Resistant to natural precipitation and long exposure to water.

Scope of use of acrylic paints

Despite the fact that this type of paintwork materials appeared on the construction market relatively recently, it has already won the approval of craftsmen of various classes. Acrylic paint is used for the finishing of such objects:

  1. Wooden windows. These products are gradually regaining their former popularity, which was shaken after the introduction of plastic windows. The acrylic coating perfectly fits both the wood itself and the putty used to seal joints and openings. If, before painting the window, cover the frames with a good primer, then you can forget about repairs for a long time.
  2. Interior and entrance doors. The paint fits perfectly on a wooden surface, canvases made of chipboard, OSB and plywood, including those covered with a protective film. In order to treat hard-to-reach places, aerosols are used. Using a quick-drying material, you can ensure that the door can be used within 6-8 hours after starting work.
  3. Facades of houses, baths, garages, sheds and other structures made of wood. The invested costs will be paid off by the long service life of the treated premises. They will be reliably protected from fungus and mold, darkening and decay. Using different colors and their combinations, you can organically adapt all buildings to their surroundings.
  4. Decorative items located inside the house and in the yard. Acrylic paint can be used to cover sculptures, swings, benches and gazebos. The finish is used not only as a protective layer, but also for artistic painting.
  5. Floor covering. This way you can significantly save on finishing or when renovating old floors. Acrylic paints breathe new life and color into planks, plywood boards and pressed boards. Even a concrete base can be painted with acrylic, giving it a completely different, original and presentable look.
  6. Manufacturing and restoration of upholstered and cabinet furniture. This paintwork material gives the furniture the desired color and shade, without hiding the natural texture and beauty of the wood. If the base is badly damaged, then a special putty is used to level it. After the priming, staining is carried out.

Despite such a wide area of ​​use of acrylic paint and its undoubted versatility, a high-quality result of its use can be achieved only if the technology of work is observed.

Color palette

The choice of the color with which the surface will be painted is an important point. After all, a well-chosen color can easily transform objects, and when it comes to painting the walls in a room, it will create a special atmosphere.

The color assortment includes not only color shades, there are also transparent types that emphasize the natural pattern of the wood. Belaya kraska and other light colors reflect warmth, which is convenient in warmer regions. White and light coatings heat up less than dark coatings and are therefore more durable.

The production process allows you to tint products using computer programs, they determine how much pigment needs to be added, which colors to mix to get the desired tone.

White and light coatings heat up less than dark coatings and are therefore more durable.

Surface preparation

For the production of furniture, they have used and are still using different coatings on chipboard, which have to be removed at home using many different methods.

In any case, cabinets, tables, bedside tables are best disassembled and taken out into the street or other open, well-ventilated space. If necessary, you can work without disassembly, then you should free up space around, spread a newspaper or thick oilcloth underneath so as not to stain the floors in the room.

Painted furniture

If the boards have been coated with varnish or paint, they can be blown dry. After warming up and softening, the top layer can be easily cleaned off with a spatula.Thick coatings made from old paints can form bloated bubbles under the influence of hot air, which are much easier to peel off than thin layers.

If you need to clean an ancient countertop, a regular hot iron will do. Having ironed the surface through the foil, the coating is quickly removed with a spatula or knife. For vertical or curly planes, for example, on a rustic chest of drawers, in the absence of a hair dryer, a burner, a blowtorch with any source of heating will help to remove the old paint

The work must be carried out very carefully, keeping in mind the safety measures

There is an alternative way to remove varnishes and paints, the essence of which is to treat the layer with solvents. The organic liquid is abundantly distributed with a brush over the surface, wait a while, then the softened layer is removed with a spatula

The solvent method is convenient, but requires caution due to the high volatility and flammability of the liquid

Furniture coated with resin, veneer or laminated paper

If there is a laminated, veneered or laminated layer on the surface, you will have to work hard. It is very difficult to remove them in the same way as paint, because there is a high probability of damage to the chip base of the chipboard material. Therefore, the furniture is treated with emery cloths until the roughness of the coating is formed, which will allow a new layer of paint to be securely fixed.

Nowadays, chipboard home furniture often has a laminated outer layer. It should be prepared with increased care, especially if subsequent staining of the chipboard is planned in an elegant white color.

Sanding is first carried out with coarse sanding plates, then the dust is gently swept out with a brush

Please note that you should not wipe dusty areas with a cloth, because dirt particles will penetrate into the pores and interfere with the subsequent fixation of the coloring pigment.

At the next stage, sanding is carried out with fine-grain emery sheets, especially focusing on the edges, corners, and other areas where preliminary processing was previously difficult to do. After that, all dust particles are swept out again.

Otherwise, instead of the long-awaited glossy cabinet or table, you may end up with a non-uniform matte finish.

After sanding the surface of the furniture, you need to slowly move your hand, probing each area for irregularities or damage. If there are any, the furniture must be putty with special compounds or a mixture of fine wood chips with PVA.

After waiting several hours, up to a day, you can proceed to the primer, which is absolutely necessary to improve the fixation of the coloring pigments in the future. The primer mass will also need a day to dry completely, provided that the work is carried out in a warm room.

If the temperature approaches the minimum allowable 5 ℃, it may take longer to dry.

2> How is demineralization carried out

The peculiarity of pine is the presence of a large amount of resinous substances, which does not always allow the paint or varnish to lie flat, therefore, before applying the coating, the wood must be degummed. Also, when a large amount of resin accumulates in a certain area, it darkens and spoils the appearance of the furniture. In addition, a sticky film appears, which will prevent the absorption of the primer. This procedure involves the complete or partial removal of resinous substances. For this, a special solvent-based composition is used. It is applied with a brush, then the surface is washed and dried. If the tarred areas have a large area, then they are cut out with a knife and sealed with putty. The composition of the solvent may include components such as:

  • technical solution of acetone;
  • baking soda;
  • technical alcohol;
  • potash;
  • hot water;
  • soap flakes.

How to choose?

The choice of paint begins with determining how it will be used: indoor, decorative or applied. The composition of the paint is of two types: organic and synthetic. Each of them is based on artificial resins. Dyes are used to create a coloring pigment. Artificial pigments appear in vibrant and rich color, while natural base in pastel colors.

As already mentioned, acrylic is a universal type of paints and varnishes. It can be used in any room. Acrylic dye is not afraid of moisture. You don't have to be a craftsman to gently cover any surface with it. First of all, buyers choose the material by color, then refer to the information about the purpose. It can be found on the packaging. Sometimes the paint is resistant, for ceilings, for facades or for interior work.

So, usually there are several types of acrylic paints:

  • Wear-resistant paint is recommended for rooms with high humidity levels.
  • Deep matt and matt paints are suitable for walls and ceilings in dry rooms. They hide small and insignificant irregularities, are easy to apply and are breathable. Before that, it is necessary to remove the whitewash from the ceiling.
  • Glossy paint does not hide irregularities, visually enhances the texture.

The range of colors is wide. There is an opportunity to make the shade yourself; for this, colors are used. They interfere with the white and create the desired shade. Kohler is a concentrated paint. It can be thick and runny.

It is enough to observe the following points in order to mix the paint with the color correctly:

  • carefully read the instructions and color card;
  • use paint and color scheme from the same manufacturer;
  • mix them in a separate container;
  • you only need to mix the amount that you need to use for painting at the moment.

Outdoor paint is used to cover the facades of houses and other outdoor objects. There are two types of paint for facade works: water-based paint and based on organic compounds. The second is especially good for work at low temperatures in winter. It lays down evenly and dries quickly at negative temperatures. Acrylic paint has high wear resistance, high protection and strength, so it is suitable for concrete products. The paint protects concrete from weather and mechanical stress.

Acrylic-based coating is also chosen for wooden products. It has the following properties:

  • resistance to changes in temperature and moisture;
  • wear resistance does not allow cracks to form on the wooden floor;
  • retains color for ten years;
  • vapor permeability is inherent in it;
  • dries quickly;
  • easy to use;
  • no need to peel off the old coat to apply a new coat of paint.

Artists and designers use acrylic to paint furniture, create patterns on glass, designs on fabric, and for painting. There is acrylic for children's creativity - this paint is brighter and is easily erased. It is non-toxic and is stored in plastic jars. There are also paints that have special properties, such as glow in the dark, fluorescent and pearlescent.

Decorative paint is available in jars and tubes. Both forms of storage are convenient to use. Tubes can be purchased individually. It is worth noting that paint cans and tubes come in different sizes. Acrylic paints on fabrics are distinguished by their elastic properties. When heated with an iron, they acquire a plastic structure and penetrate into the fabric. After dyeing, it is recommended to wash the clothes in the hand wash mode.

Acrylic nail paint is also stored in jars and tubes. The material in the jars is needed to create the pattern with a brush or other tools. If necessary, the paint can be diluted with water.Thanks to the narrow spout at the end of the tube, paints are ready for use right away. Tubes can also be purchased per piece.
