FAQs
Is this paint waterproof once dry?
Yes, Pebeo Matt Acrylic is permanent and water-resistant once fully cured.
Can I use this for outdoor projects?
While it is light-resistant, if using outdoors, it is highly recommended to seal the project with an outdoor-rated varnish to protect against moisture and UV exposure.
How long does it take to dry?
Touch-dry time is typically 30-60 minutes, but it is recommended to wait 24 hours for a full cure.
Can this be used on fabric?
It is designed primarily for hard surfaces; while it may adhere to fabric, it will likely be stiff and not machine-washable.
Does it require a primer?
For most surfaces, no primer is necessary. However, for very porous or dark materials, a base coat of white acrylic can help the color pop.
Is it safe for children?
The product is standard artist-grade acrylic; it is intended for hobby and craft use. Adult supervision is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears streaky or thin
Apply in thin, multiple layers rather than one thick coat, allowing each layer to dry completely in between.
Paint is not adhering to smooth plastic
Lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper to provide a 'tooth' for the paint to grip onto.
Paint dried inside the cap
Soak the cap in warm water for several minutes and gently scrape the dried acrylic away with a plastic tool.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure your chosen surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or oils before application. Use synthetic brushes for the smoothest finish; natural hair brushes may absorb too much of the medium due to its dense consistency.
- Application: Use a palette or a small ceramic dish to decant the amount needed, then replace the cap immediately to prevent skinning.
- Clean-up: While wet, the paint cleans up easily with soap and warm water. Once cured, the paint is permanent.
- Compatibility: If you require a different texture, you may mix this paint with other acrylic mediums to adjust viscosity or transparency.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain the integrity of the formula.
