FAQ
What are the ingredients in the Natural Acrylic Paint? The acrylic is a unique formulation that we have spent years working on with many chemists, so the specific ingredients are a proprietary recipe until patented. I hope you understand that we cannot share specific ingredients, however we can say that ingredients are plant-based and non-toxic.
Is it biodegradable? The natural acrylic paint and medium does not biodegrade quickly or home compost because it is meant to be a durable, permanent paint. It will break down over a long period of time like conventional acrylic paint. It is made with a plant-based resin, natural or non-toxic pigments and most importantly no carcinogenic or hormone disrupting additives that are in conventional acrylic paints. Natural Acrylic Paint does not off-gas highly toxic fumes when it dries. When washed down the drain it can be safely filtered from water systems via city filtration septic systems and when thrown away can go into trash to start its journey of breaking down. If you prefer a biodegradable paint then a better option would be our Complete Eco-friendly Oil Paint Kit, our Natural Watercolor Kit, Natural Earth Paint Kit, or any recipes on our website (gouache, egg tempera, casein paint, etc.). These paints will be permanent and archival as well (if kept indoors away from elements) but if they are thrown away or left out in the elements, they will turn back to earth.
Can I mix it with conventional acrylics? Yes, they mix perfectly with conventional acrylics.
Will you ever offer it in larger quantities? Yes, larger 150 ml tubes of Acrylik paint are available in 4 colors. Please let us know what other colors you would like to see . We will also be offering squeeze bottles of fluid paint as well.
Are they archival and lightfast? Yes, absolutely.
What is the finish / how do they dry? Gloss, semi-gloss, matte, satin? It varies slightly depending on the pigment used but most dry to a gloss finish and a few dry satin/matte.
How are they different from regular acrylics? They are made with a plant-based resin instead of petroleum-based; they are made with natural pigments instead of heavy metal or petrochemical-based pigments; they do not contain harsh chemical additives, hormone disruptors or carcinogenic additives.
Can the paints be thinned down with water to make fluid acryliks? Yes
Why do you call it “Acrylik” if it's not plastic? We changed the spelling of "Acrylic" slightly so that customers would recognize the "style" of paint that this is, but know that it's not the same thing.
How long does it take to dry? The same speed as conventional acrylics - about 10-40 min., depending on the humidity level you're in. For painting fabric, we recommend letting it cure for 24 hours before putting it in the wash.
Does the acrylic paint work as a permanent fabric paint? The Acryliks (either the pre-mixed tubes or the Natural Acylik Medium mixed with the Earth & Mineral Pigments) will be permanent once dry. For textiles, we recommend a full 24 hour drying time before washing or wearing. But at that point, the paint will be sweat resistant. When washing, we recommend washing by hand or on a gentle cycle with cold water and lay flat or hang dry. Our Natural Acrylic Medium is an excellent choice to make permanent fabric paint. It is a clear medium so you can mix any of our natural pigments with it to create the colors of your choice. Check our tutorials
