One of the reasons for this is the first PRO that I have for their paints. * The Ceramcoat line has an extraordinary amount of colors available, more than I've ever seen of any other brand on the shelves at a craft store. I know the packaging doesn't make the paint better or worse, but I really love their packaging. It doesn't feel cluttered like other paint brand packaging does. I just can't help myself.when I see that label on the front of the bottles, I'm drawn to them. Lighter colors do tend to show the canvas through them, but the Ceramcoat paints give a really good coat the first time. It doesn't take much to touch them up after the first coat. The paint is thick enough for a good first coat, but not too thick to make it hard to work with in smaller spaces. Wood is a much more porous surface and calls for a couple coats of paint as a primer. The Ceramcoat did really well on the first coat.Ĭeramcoat touts their paints as "America's Favorite Acrylic Paint." The paints are a bit more on the higher end of acrylic paints. Most stores sell them for a MSRP of $1.69 per 2 oz. bottle, though there are bigger bottles of the more popular colors in 4, 8 and 12 ounce sizes. These paints typically dry within 15 minutes. The Apple Barrel line of acrylic paints are ideal for porous surfaces and great for wood, kids' crafts, and basic crafting. They don't necessarily work great for canvas work, as even with a second coat, the coverage isn't enough. The adage that "you get what you pay for" isn't always true.
Even some of the cheaper cost paints match up to some of the higher cost paints. The cheapest of the paints (Craft Smart) was almost as good as the most expensive paints (Ceramcoat). It also really depends on what you're using your paints for.
