Americana Decor Satin Enamels Acrylic Paint, Pure White, ADSA02, 8 fl oz, Jar (3 Pack)

This is a great product, especially within specific paint applications. It is a go-to product for myself and other painters I know. I typically have this within my paint supplies as it is a staple product I use.

I started painting my kitchen cabinets with this paint and found it really great to work with. As others have mentioned it’s easy to control, no dripping or splatters, goes on easily and evenly, levels itself well, and seems to be durable. I did find when I got towards the end of the jar the paint thickened somewhat and went on less well. So be aware of that and thin it if necessary. While I am primarily using the gray I’ve cut it with a bit of white, and the white was quite a bit thicker than the gray for some reason. Maybe it was an older batch? Not sure. Unlike some people I have found that it adheres better without primer, at least on my oak kitchen cabinets. Not sure why. If I were doing a lighter color like the white, I would prime anyway so that there is no bleed through, especially on oak. However with the darker gray, I’m not so worried about that. This paint has a nice sheen to it, and although my project is still in process it feels like it will hold up aswell, as other people have reported. The only issue is the seller just carelessly threw all 10 jars in a cardboard box, with one pathetic little air bubble for cushioning. The box was damaged, and a couple of the jars broke open in transit, spilling the paint all over the rest of the jars. So in short, would definitely buy this paint again, and would never use that seller again.

I am a DIY that has done a lot of furniture products. I checked their website before painting to see if there was more information about application than is on their small jar, but I didn't see any. I was excited to try this paint, and my first project was a bathroom cabinet. I disagree with their no primer needed advice. I went over a dark cabinet and had bleed through after a while. So I primed it, then painted it again. (It is my experience that you never regret priming furniture first, so lesson learned again.) No more bleed through. I like to roll my furniture when possible for a smoother finish, only rolling in one direction (no back and forth like you do when painting a wall). I had poor success doing so with this paint. It left bubbles all over, so I went against my normal painting technique of only rolling in one direction going back and forth, and that did not get rid of the bubbles. I had to knock the bubbles down by lightly going over it with a paint brush. Unfortunately, using a paint brush does leave faint brush marks, and that just bugged me. Next time I will try a sponge type roller and see if I have better luck. When I do, I will try and remember to update this review. UPDATE: I’ve done a few more projects with this paint, using a small roller (and a paint brush where needed). I use a small roller (the skinny kind in best available) because a large one would probably soak up at least half of the small jar of paint. It leaves bubbles when rolling, but I’ve learned they disappear on their own. I did a bathroom cabinet that is used by two parents and three younger kids. It has held up really well for the past ten months. I wash with TSP, then prime with good primer paint. I will always prime before using this paint. It prevents bleed through and I believe it helps with adhesion. I lightly sand between coats. Based on the great durability, this paint is now my go to paint for furniture projects. I have found their coverage estimate of two coats for 20 square feet to be accurate. Update Dec. 2018: It's been over a year and the kitchen and bathroom cabinets still look good. And obviously, they get a lot of use. I have done other projects, and have discarded my rule about only rolling in one directions. I roll back and forth, and then I do it all in one direction to finish it off.

The product is great but the seal on the inside of the lids is not effective. The product leaks every time.

Covers really well & looks good.

This product works perfectly for the art piece I'm creating.

Received DecoArt white satin enamel paint from seller Global Link MD. Jar was half empty; paint was thick and lumpy like stiff cottage cheese, chalky, absolutely unworkable and unusable. Returned for refund. Will repurchase from the DecoArt store. This is a great product, just be careful who your seller is when purchasing.

Great paint for use in cloud painting in fluid acrylic painting. When combined with several other ingredients this paint creates the most luxurious “ cloud” effect

Bien

Great product

Etat parfait

Ich mag das Produkt, wenn es auch sehr dunkel ist, für Acrylic Pouring

I use enamel paint for painting fishing floats/bobbers, made out of peacock quills and with pieces of bamboo skewer glued in with 2 pack epoxy glue, meaning I am painting 3 very different finishes. I'm as relatively new convert to water based paints, having previously used oil based as I was convinced they gave a better finish and would be more watertight. After a recent house decorating project, where I used water based for the first time, I decided to use acrylic for my next batch of floats. I chose this brand mainly because of the cost for the quantity of paint and it was quite well reviewed. I use this paint for the main 'body' of my floats, I paint the tips white, and then bright orange, and put some black rings on them. I have 4 different brand paints for 4 different colours, and this brand is the best out of them as it gives the best finish in regards to coverage, and the smoothness of the finish and this was on the quill, the bamboo skewer and the epoxy glue. Its quite thick in consistency (thicker than I expected), but I guess this helps with the coverage, I only needed 2 coats to get rid of any trace of the underlying white colour of the quill. The beauty of being water soluble is that its easy to thin by adding a touch of water if needed, and when done the clean up is so easy and there is next to no smell at all. I found the drying time to be touch dry in about 45 mins, and dry enough for a second coat in about 3 hours. (inside, in winter, in a centrally heated house). I'd aim to buy this brand when I want more of this kind of paint. Where were these kind of paints when I was a youngster making plastic Aixfix models?...!!!
