Acrylic paint in the colors makers reach for daily — from brand-name staples to specialty finishes. Tested for coverage, color accuracy, and batch consistency so your signature palette stays the same.
Nearly everything porous: wood, canvas, paper, plaster, terra cotta, and more. For slick surfaces like glass or glazed ceramic, switch to glass paint or an enamel — this comparison explains when each wins.
What's the difference between craft acrylic and artist acrylic?
Craft acrylics prioritize easy coverage, huge color ranges, and value — ideal for decorative projects and production work. Artist grades carry higher pigment loads for fine-art blending at a higher price.
How do I get smooth coverage with acrylic paint?
Two thin coats beat one thick one, and a light sanding between coats on wood gives a factory-smooth finish. For dimensional texture instead, see painting with super thick paint.
Do acrylic painted items need sealing?
Seal anything that gets handled, washed, or displayed outdoors — Mod Podge or a clear acrylic sealer both work. Wall art and shelf decor can usually go unsealed.
