2. Acrylic painting techniques - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_painting_techniques

   The ratio of paint to water/pouring medium depends on how thick the glaze or pouring paint is expected to be. An opaque glaze or paint consists of more paint than water, and will give a more solid color. A translucent glaze or paint will be the opposite, consisting of slightly more water than the opaque version, and will have a smoother texture ...

3. In-mould decoration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-mould_decoration

   The mould must be constructed so that the back side of the carrier film rests against a flat wall. The plastic film can be bent slightly, but the more it is bent, the greater the risk of wrinkles. The filling only takes place on the other side, the side of the carrier with the material to be transferred. The part has to stay on the side of the ...

4. Primer (paint) - Wikipedia

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

   Primers are used on metal hydroxides/oxides to improve the surface condition and to encourage bonding. Without a primer, paint applied to metals are prone to peeling. [6] Special kinds of primer (rust-converters) can be used to chemically convert rust to the solid metal salts. [7] This process is not recommended for structural steel.

5. Acrylic paint - Wikipedia

   The use of a solvent to remove paint may result in removal of all of the paint layers (acrylic gesso, et cetera). Oils and warm, soapy water can remove acrylic paint from skin. Acrylic paint can be removed from nonporous plastic surfaces such as miniatures or models using cleaning products such as Dettol (containing chloroxylenol 4.8% v/w). [22]

6. Spray paint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_paint

   Spray paint (formally aerosol paint) is paint that comes in a sealed, pressurized container and is released in an aerosol spray when a valve button is depressed. The propellant is what the container of pressurized gas is called. When the pressure holding the gas is released through the valve, the aerosol paint releases as a fine spray. [1]

7. Plastic coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_coating

   A boundary can be drawn by whether a reaction or crosslinking of the coating takes place (automotive clear coat) or whether a plastic merely melts and solidifies on the surface (vortex sintering with thermoplastics), but the transitions are fluid. As a rule, plastic coatings have significantly higher film thicknesses than conventional paint.

8. Conservation and restoration of paintings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_and...

   There is solvent-based and water-based. Solvent-based acrylic paints are soluble in mineral spirits, and water-based acrylic paints are water-soluble. Acrylic paint differs from oil paint in both its quick drying time, and how the paint dries. Acrylic paint dries in as little as thirty minutes, and dries by the evaporation of the solvent or ...

9. Hammer paint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammer_paint

   The optical advantage of hammer paint is that surfaces look acceptable even if the underlying surface is not flat and smooth. To get a regular paint to look smooth, the surface would have to be prepared first, for example, by spackling, sanding, grinding or polishing. With hammer paint, this step can be omitted.
