  2. Primer (paint) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primer_(paint)

    Primer reduces the number of paint coats needed for good coverage and even color. A thin layer of paint may still be permeable to water. Water can permeate into the wood and cause warping, mildew, or dry rot. Primer improves the waterproofing of the finish. [4] Primers are not used as part of a wood stain treatment because they obscure the wood ...

    A cabinet painting (or "cabinet picture") is a small painting, typically no larger than two feet (0.6 meters) in either dimension, but often much smaller. [5] The term is especially used for paintings that show full-length figures or landscapes at a small scale, rather than a head or other object painted nearly life-size.

  5. Casein paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casein_paint

    One of the qualities for which artists value casein paint is that unlike gouache, it dries to an even consistency, making it ideal for murals. Also, it can visually resemble oil painting more than most other water-based paints, and works well as an underpainting. Casein paint loses its solubility with time and exposure and becomes water-resistant.

  6. Paint sheen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_sheen

    The sheen [4] or gloss level of a paint is principally determined by the ratio of resinous, adhesive binder, which solidifies after drying, and solid, powdery pigment.The more binder the coating contains, the more regular reflection will be made from its smooth surface; conversely, with less binder, grains of pigment become exposed to the surface, scattering the light and providing matte ...

    Urine-repellent paint is a very hydrophobic (water-repellent) paint. It has been used by cities and other property owners to deter men from urinating against walls, as the urine splashes back on their shoes, instead of dripping down the wall. [42] [43] [44] Anti-climb paint is a non-drying paint that appears normal but is extremely slippery. It ...

  8. Oil paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_paint

    The thickness of the coat has considerable bearing on the time required for drying: thin coats of oil paint dry relatively quickly. The viscosity of the paint may be modified by the addition of a solvent such as turpentine or white spirit, and varnish may be added to increase the glossiness of the dried oil paint film.

  9. Paint thinner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_thinner

    Paint thinners are diluents — solvents used to adjust the viscosity of paint, as well as similar preparations such as varnish and lacquer, by dilution. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Organic solvents labelled "paint thinner" are usually turpentine or white spirits / mineral spirits for the use of diluting oil-based paints only.
