Why High-Quality Paints & Mediums Matter

• Colour Richness & Pigment Strength: Good paints deliver vibrant colour, rich pigment load and resist fading under sunlight or exposure.

• Control over Texture & Finish: Using mediums (gel, retarders, pour mediums) controls paint flow, drying time, gloss or matte finish.

• Compatibility with Surfaces: Some paints are suited only to canvas; others to fabric or paper. Mediums help adapt consistency.

• Long-Lasting Art: Proper mediums and paints guard against cracking, peeling, or uneven drying in Pakistan’s varying climate.

FAQs – Paints & Mediums in Pakistan

1. What is the difference between acrylic paint and oil paint?
Acrylic paint dries quickly, is water-based and easier to manage, while oil paint dries slowly, has richer texture and longer blending time. Acrylics are better for beginners; oils are valued for their depth and durability once dried.

2. Which medium slows the drying time of acrylic paints?
Retarder medium is used to slow down acrylic paints’ drying time. It allows longer working time for blending and smoother transitions without cracking in thicker applications.

3. Can I mix pouring medium with any acrylic paint?
Yes. Pouring medium can be mixed with most acrylic colours to create fluid art effects. It helps with flow and reduces the risk of cracking or crazing. Always follow mixing ratios as per the medium’s instructions.

4. Are fabric paints permanent after washing?
High-quality fabric paints are formulated to be washable once fully cured. Distinct brands provide wash resistance. Ensure you follow curing directions (like heat applying or washing cold) to maintain permanence.

5. What finish will look best: matte or gloss?
Gloss finish enhances colour depth and shine; matte gives softer, non-reflective look. Satin gives a balance. Choice depends on style: gloss for vibrant modern art, matte for soft realistic works or photos.

6. How do I store paint and medium supplies in Pakistan’s climate?
Store paints & mediums in cool, dry places away from direct humidity and heat. Seal caps tightly. For oils, keep containers upright and away from moisture. Proper storage extends shelf life and retains pigment quality.
