This amazing paint contains an extreme pigment load for truly professional results and coverage. Its high opacity combined with superior nozzle and line control ensure you can work quickly and efficiently. Plus there is virtually no overspray so you do not waste any paint, and the ultra-fast drying time prevents runs and drips. Dries to a durable matte finish — use it indoors or out, because it is 100% weatherproof. Guaranteed lightfast for 10 years.

Use on any surface, including porous and non-porous materials such as canvas, plastic, glass, wood, metal, ceramic or concrete. You can even use it on styrofoam and foamboard, however you must apply it lightly in several passes or it may dissolve the plastic foam if applied too heavily. Testing first on scrap pieces is always a good idea....Read more

Health and safety is a major concern for artists, and many people avoid painting with oils to avoid complications. Solvents, even odourless mineral spirits, require sufficient ventilation.
