Is it normal for the paint to come off on your hand??? The black stuff is all over the packaging & my hands!

I would assume some chipping is ok, but if it's rubbing off like paint that's not dry, then it's a problem.

I have never had trouble with the paint coming off on my hands - that is definitely not normal.

That sounds like a flaw. I have used mine for well over a year and have never experienced paint problems.

I have not had that problem at all. You should check with the manufacturer. Tony

Hi Melissa, this is just peel and stick, like a large sticker. When you're done using it, it will come right off without taking off any paint. I love this stuff!

the paint might come off. i'm a security officer, removing graffitti on bathroom walls and sometimes the paint becomes soft and starts coming off

My kids love playing with it in the water (sprinkler, bucket, etc) and I have not found a way to get it out of the clothes. The black is by far the worst offender. They've also taken to 'painting' on the side of the house with their chalk paint (vinyl siding) and it takes a magic eraser to get all the black (and sometimes green/red) off. I'm here scouring reviews to see if anyone has a suggestion for clothes... otherwise I have several cute outfits (for all 3 kids) that are ruined. :/

I dropped my orange one on a sidewalk from about four or five feet up and it put a nasty ding and scratched a tiny bit of paint off. This happened right when I got it and I've had it about a year now. The paint looks like it is starting to crack(in the area around where I dropped it, it's fine everywhere else) but it has not yet started to chip or peel. I think it would take years for the paint to start to wear on one of these as long as it doesn't get dropped too hard.

mine came in correctly with the silicone on the palm of the right hand....I think the package picture does not match

I agree with amber, the paint is similar to a primer. I would just paint it. The distressing is actually like lead pencil. You might want to try to wipe it off. Maybe one of those Mr Clean sponges would do the trick.

Paula, I have never before heard this issue raised, but I appreciate the information. If that spot is scratch-prone, we can let future customers know to be mindful of this and take extra precaution. Thanks so much. Sincerely, JR Hill Goedekers.com

I think you may be expecting too much from the film. I won't say its cloudy, but the smooth invisible texture isn't there either. Once you get a handful of cuts in the film from debris, I would just replace it if you think it looks bad. At least your paint job is still intact... something much more costly to correct than putting down new film.

I've bought these Sculpey boxes at Michaels, Walmart, and Blick's besides online and they never come wrapped or pristine. I can't say whether boxes I've ordered online have finger marks but in stores they often do. If it's just one or two I'd say they were just checking it wasn't dried out before sending it. Personally, I find it normal and as long as it wasn't dry and crumbly or missing clay I wouldn't worry.

It's a form of plastic so it probably will peel eventually. You should inquire in your paint store about a primer and the kind of paint that will adhere best.

I would highly recommend not taking this apart at all. They are made pretty cheap. If you want to get rid of it, I hate it too, then just wrap everything in tape but the top surface and spray with flat black paint.

You need a chemical solvent like paint thinner to remove it. Water just makes it worse. You should wear gloves so it doesn't get on you to start, but it happens.

Rita,That is exactly why I bought this paint. I sanded the ring where paint came off on bottom of microwave with heavy sanding paper then with very fine grit paper. Wiped it clean. Sprayed light coat of paint, repeated 3 times. I even painted some stained areas on sides and top of inside microwave and it turned out beautiful. Makes my microwave look clean and new inside!!!This paint is fast drying. Remember not to hold can to close to what you are painting or it will run. I took my microwave out on pick nick table so I could turn it every which way that I needed.It is working great for us. Painted several months ago and holding up great.

I purchased the orange colored bottle a few moths ago and I haven't had any trouble with the paint peeling off. I tend to hand wash the bottle in hot water, instead of using a dishwasher, so that may help. Overall, it's a good product. Hope this helps.

The paint is awful and old & it will ruin your paint job so don't use it. It stinks. Got to Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams & get a good oil based fresh paint. I called Zinser & they said it was old stock & it has to be fresh & why my paint job looks awful. I got all the paint off & worked for weeks for all my hard work to be ruined. Just call them & ask about tsp & check if it expired if u must use it. I learned the hard way & then to find it is not good. If it gets cold or two hot you get a terrible lumpy mess or some is solid some streaky & u think I just need a better brush so u try a roller & you never had a chance.
