FAQs
How do I clean my brushes?
Clean brushes immediately after use with soap and water. Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear.
Can I use DecoArt Americana Acrylic Paint on fabric?
Yes, DecoArt Americana Acrylic Paints can be used on fabric, but it's recommended to test on a small area first and heat-set the paint after drying for added durability.
Do I need to prime the surface before painting?
Priming is recommended, especially for surfaces like wood or metal, to ensure better adhesion and a more even finish. However, the primer is not always necessary.
Can I mix DecoArt Americana Acrylic Paints with other acrylic paints?

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

How do I store the paint?

Troubleshooting
Paint is too thick or difficult to apply.
Add a small amount of water to the paint and mix thoroughly to achieve a smoother consistency.
Paint is not adhering well to the surface.
Ensure the surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and lightly sanded). Consider using a primer if necessary.
