Please contact us at [email protected] Shipping Policy: At Natural Earth Paint Canada, we take great care to ensure your products arrive in excellent condition, no matter the season. Most items in our catalog do not contain temperature sensitive ingredients and are therefore not affected by cold temperatures. These items ship normally throughout the year. However, certain products — including our Natural Acrylik Paints, Medium, and Fluid Acryliks — can be damaged if exposed to cold temperatures during shipping. For these select items, additional precautions are taken during colder months. FAQsWhat are the ingredients in the Natural Acrylik Paint?The acrylik is a unique formulation that we have spent years working on with many chemists, so the specific ingredients are a proprietary recipe until patented. I hope you understand that we cannot share specific ingredients, however we can say that ingredients are plant-based and non-toxic.Is it biodegradable?The natural acrylik paint and medium do not biodegrade quickly or home compost because they are meant to be a durable, permanent paint. They will break down over a long period of time like conventional acrylic paint. Natural Acrylik is made with a plant-based resin, natural or non-toxic pigments and most importantly no carcinogenic or hormone disrupting additives that are in conventional acrylic paints.Natural Acrylic Paint does not off-gas highly toxic fumes when it dries. When washed down the drain it can be safely filtered from water systems via city filtration septic systems and when thrown away can go into trash to start its journey of breaking down.If you prefer a biodegradable paint then a better option would be our Complete Eco-friendly Oil Paint Kit, our Natural Watercolour Kit, Natural Earth Paint Kit, or any recipes on our website (gouache, egg tempera, casein paint, etc.). These paints will be permanent and archival as well (if kept indoors away from elements) but if they are thrown away or left out in the elements, they will turn back to earth.Can I mix it with conventional acrylics?Yes, they mix perfectly with conventional acrylics.Are they archival and lightfast?Yes, absolutely. Can't I just thin the heavy body Natural Acrylik Paints with water to get the same fluid paints? When you thin heavy body paint with water, you are diluting the pigment load while changing the consistency. But the Fluid - Natural Acrylik Paints have the exact same pigment load as the heavy body paints but are thinner - which gives many more uses. What is the finish / how do they dry? Gloss, semi-gloss, matte, satin?It varies slightly depending on the pigment used but most dry to a gloss finish and a few dry satin/matte.Why do you call it “Acrylik”?We changed the spelling of acrylic slightly so that customers would recognize the style of paint that this is, but recognize that it's not the same.How long does it take to dry?The same speed as conventional acrylics - about 10-40 min., depending on the humidity level you're in. For painting fabric, we recommend letting it cure for 24 hours before putting it in the wash.
