Q1 : How fast do acrylic paints dry? Acrylic paints are an excellent choice for beginner painters (and beyond) because they dry very quickly. Unlike oil paints, they dry by evaporation of the water of which they are made up. Thin layers of acrylic will dry in minutes. If very thick application is desired, experts suggest many thin layers left to cure between coats, instead of a large, thick daub all at once. |
