2. Acrylic paint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_paint

   The rapid drying of acrylic paint tends to discourage blending of color and use of wet-in-wet technique as in oil painting. Even though acrylic retarders can slow drying time to several hours, it remains a relatively fast-drying medium and adding too much acrylic retarder can prevent the paint from ever drying properly.

   Pour painting can also be done with oil paints, but because those paints take a longer time to dry, the piece would have to be done over an extended period of time, or with wet paints. [2] However, the subtle effects of the interaction of different liquid colors on drying can be partially lost during the drying process.

4. Acrylic retarder - Wikipedia

   When used correctly, they can keep the paint wet from half an hour extra to a full day's working time. Applying too much retardant, however, can prevent a layer from drying correctly for as long as the retardant is present, causing future damage to the painting unless the affected layer of paint is removed or re-mixed.

5. Glaze (painting technique) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaze_(painting_technique)

   The medium, base, or vehicle is the mixture to which the dry pigment is added. Different media can increase or decrease the rate at which oil paints dry. Often, because a paint is too opaque, painters will add a medium like linseed oil or alkyd to the paint to make them more transparent and pliable for the purposes of glazing.

6. Acrylate polymer - Wikipedia

   Acrylic paints as artist paints. Acrylic fibre. Sodium polyacrylate water-soluble thickeners, a polymer for the production of the Superabsorbent polymer (SAP) used in disposable diapers due to its high absorbency per unit mass. Acrylic resin as pressure-sensitive adhesive. "Super glue" is a formulation of cyanoacrylate.

7. Wash (visual arts) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wash_(visual_arts)

   With water-based media such as inks, acrylic paints, tempera paints or watercolor paints, a wet brush should be dipped into a pool of very wet and diluted paint. This paint pool should be evenly mixed and dispersed to prevent uneven pigment load on the brush. The loaded brush should then be applied to a dry or wet support.

9. Lacquer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lacquer

   Acrylic resin is colourless, transparent thermoplastic, obtained by the polymerization of derivatives of acrylic acid. Acrylic is also used in enamel paints, which have the advantage of not needing to be buffed to obtain a shine. Enamels, however, are slow drying. The advantage of acrylic lacquer is its exceptionally fast drying time.
