Q1 : Why do some paints appear darker when dried?
The darkening of the paint during the drying time depends on the amount of pigment in the mixture. When wet, the water in the paint gives a "white" appearance due to the way light travels through water - this lightens the perceived color of the paint. When the water has evaporated, however, that whiteness is gone, leaving the "true" pigment color. |
