Has it's limits
The paint is obviously very cheap and intended for kids to play around with but can be made to work for craft projects with a bit of coercing. The main problem is adhesion to any surface that isn't paper, if you try to paint multiple layers on wood etc you're going to strip off the previous layers while laying down the new one.
You can fix this by mixing the paint with a small amount, 1:0.25~ ratio, of PVA glue. Priming the surface can also help the first layer to stick firmly but won't do much for subsequent layers.
All in all you get what you pay for. I knew what I was buying so I can't knock it too hard.

A great product
Brought this alongside the yellow paint for a banner and didn't disappoint. Only needed one coat and was really pleased with final finished. Also used it to paint the canes. Would definitely recommend and at only £1 a great price.

Watery paint
The paint is really watery compared to old Hobbycraft paint. The colour is nice, but it's very runny and quite see through, which is a shame. Helpful if you want to pour it and create a Pollock style painting, I suppose!

Good fun getting messy painting
These paints are good value and ideal for little people to get messy and have some fun. Clean up easily and good value in combination with other hobbycraft products for making cards and paintings for the grandparents.
