What if I dropped an entire bucket of paint? Would it leak through then or no? (It's an art project...)

It would leak, unfortunately. I have mine hanging as outdoor curtains and when it rains they're pretty much soaked through but dry easily the next day.

I would say from my experience that you would make a tremendous mess, I would recommend putting visqueen plastic underneath if you are splattering paint on the canvas for your art project and want to protect the floor underneath. This is a light duty cloth and a whole bucket of paint (quart or gallon) would likely be a disaster. If the canvas is not necessary to your art project I would forego it and just use visqueen, but watch out because it will be slippery after it has paint on it.

If it's brand new (never washed) my guess is it would hold it for awhile, though eventually it might leak through ... I guess it would depend on how fast it dries (outdoors in the sun? dumped all in one spot really heavy or spread out all over?). They seem to have a coating on them when first opened and are semi stiff. At that point they seem like they'd hold a thick liquid like paint, at least for awhile. Once washed, they become very soft and I'm sure wouldn't hold any liquid.

save your money on buying paint! This stuff leaves a really nice look! Just paint it on up around them vents! Besides it helps water proof around the vents too that way! I used it and havent had any leaks or problems!didnt even caulk around the vents! this stuff really works good!. Hope this helps!

I wouldn't think so. I have not done any spray painting so a Iam by no means an expert. I would think the key to even application of paint is constant pressure. This compressor cycles frequently to keep pressure in the tank. Note I am using for airing up automobile tires. Spray painting may draw less volume down and thus the compressor maybe fine depending on the air requirement of the paint spray gun.Good Luck

Linda, No, it is not. Wet or moist paints do dry out over a normal amount of time depending on conditions. I there is not a seal arond the container edges and the boxed is hinged in the back allowing air in. If you'd like to provide me your email, I could send you the picture I took from the back of one of my boxes.

Not unless you have a lot of overspray. Example: If you were painting a chain link fence, you'd use a lot more paint because much of it would just be shooting through the holes in the fence. If painting a picket fence and you allowed a lot of paint to shoot through, between the slats, you'd waste a lot also. If you're spraying on so much paint that it's running and dripping, you're using too much. It's all about how you use it.

No!! I followed their directions exactly and it leaked. I let it soak for two day and it leaked. Suitable for decoration only.

I'd say yes....as I went to home depot and brought back a gallon of paint, throw-a-way roller/tray kit in addition to my standard bottle of water and spare hat. Of course it was a bit streached but weigh a gallon of paint sometimes. It never moved on the 10 smile trip back to the house. I was amazed.

I read instructions on the can, nothing mention about using brush to paintI was used with air sprayer .This liquid very thin ( like.... water, solvent)

Yes! The putty comes right off and all in one piece. I have not noticed any ceiling paint damage personally, as long as you don't use too much putty, you should be fine!

The water-based paint won't harm the balloon and should last...as long as there's no risk of it getting wet. Keep in mind the pens work best when facing down...which could be a challenge if the balloon is filled with helium :-) I wouldn't use the extra-fine tip because it's pretty pointy and might poke through, but a fine tip or medium tip would work as long as you get the paint flowing pretty well BEFORE you start so you won't need to use too much pressure. Also I would have a slightly moist paper towel ready just in case you make a mistake so you can quickly "erase" it. Good luck and post a picture if you can so we can see how it worked out!

Yes, if the paint you are using doesn't dissolve the surface of the paper, and if it doesn't crackle when you roll it back up. Wish I had thought of that.

This will not work for paint. Paint requires a large amount of air. To do continuous painting you will probably need to go to a gas powered compressor and if it is a one time job I would consider renting one instead of buying a large compressor. Aside from the extra money a large compressor takes more room to store and is louder when it runs this small compressor is great for finish work and small projects stores easily and is easy to lift and move around.

I did not try, but I think it is a good idea. It should work, since the paint will probably not disturb/change, e.g. the thickness of the material. Good luck!

nope, i am pretty sure the liquid would drip through the holes in the mesh.

If you place it outside it will get wet,without the water causing damage. It will NOT float in water. If submerged, I think it will eventually damage the paintwork.
