Any chance this paint would work on paper, or is paper too porous?

We use it on many things including paper. It really depends on the paper, but you could always treat the paper prior to painting to avoid absorption.

It's a smooth plastic surface, so it would not be very easy to paint. But I'm not a pro so I guess anything is possible.

The paper does not feel waxy on either side. While I don't know about using paint, you can write on the paper with a pencil, ballpoint pen, uniball gel pen, magic marker or felt tip pen. No problem.

I use these paints on anything! I don't however expect that it would hold up well outside in the weather. I have painted on paper, canvas, wood and even glass. Very versatile!

yes! definitely. I'd suggest something like acrylic that isn't water soluble, just for longevity. But painting on it works like a charm.

I ordered the beige set and I think it may be possible IF you use a method that will not soak the fabric. You can try on the fabric covered cardboard insert. Is there a sponge painting technique? Could you stipple on fabric paint? It would take experimentation.

The surface is pretty smooth and would not take paint well. However, if you could find a primer that would bond with plastic well, then I bet you could paint it.

Yes, but it is not the best option. I have painted large areas because I had no other option and it worked O.K. I have 8-9 of these and they are best for craft projects, say a wagon, small table, or wall sign. The paint needs to be strained and clean or it will stop up the siphon tip.

This is more of artist set up. You could probably do it depending on what you want.. even spray 1 color maybe not so good for solid coverage.. but if you were doing a painting of some sort with detail it would work well.

Being recycled paper, it is more absorbent than watercolor paper, but if you keep your paints a little on the dry side, it should work. The envelopes that come with them are worthless. They are so thin, they tear when you insert the folded card.

Francine it is ideal for dry media, and I personally would go for thicker paper for wet'un. But I am not the type to use paint of any nature, so for me this one has proved itself.

It should paint up nicely- they come on an peel-away paper backing which is similar to what body shops use for masking tape. It's all a matter of taste, but I think black-on-black would look really slick.

I would use markers, the material is very flexible and paint would probably crack and peel.

I'm not sure, but probably so. I put it over plasted walls that had some cracks and the outcome is beautiful. I would definitely give it a try, especially if the existing paper is intact.

I haven't tried spray paint, and I don' know what the consistency would be like (how wet). But because a simple magic marker will soak through, in my opinion, I think spray paint would soak through the paper, too.

It is an embossed vinyl, and it probably would work, but i would do it do to grease splatters which could discolor the paper. I have found that if I have to wipe it down for anything, a little color comes off on the cleaning cloth.

Yes as long as the paint is dry. It may need to have a clear wax first. The darker wax sometimes will soak in if the surface is porous.
