Can tempera paint be used on plastic?
Can tempera paint be used on plastic or styrafoam?Can tempera paint be used on plastic?
Absolutely not. it will not stick, it will peel right off. For plastic I would use enamel paint, or fusion spray paint.Can tempera paint be used on plastic?
No-it is more chalky and will flake off. Its made for paper. Try the new acrylic enamels that are out. They are inexpensive and easy to use and water based. You can buy them in the craft section of Walmart, in JoAnns and Micheals etc.Your need is for a paint with plasticides in it-like an oil, but thats too much of a hassle-so these should work well.About 1.50-3.00 for 2 oz-goes a long way.
no. and why would you want to use something expensive on Styrofoam anyway?
Tempera could be used on anything that it will stick to for sure. The only probably is that is is really a dull finish when it dries....and it could come off very easily. To be a little more blunt with my answer.....No, I would not waste my time putting tempera on plastic....or for that matter anything else other than a painting that I intended to frame and put under glass.

What is the name, kind, brand of ink or paint that is used in the printing of plastic cups?
I would like to print logo or designs in a plastic cup using the silk screen method. What is the name, brand, supplier of the ink or paint that is usually used in the printing plastic cups. Where can i find them?What is the name, kind, brand of ink or paint that is used in the printing of plastic cups?
I really don't know how to help you, but I can tell you this; inks for printing on materials like that have to be EPA safe, and are made specifically not to be poisonous if it is accidentally ingested, even in tiny amounts, so it would have to be organic based. These kinds of inks dry on a surface in a couple of seconds, when exposed to a strong UV light source. Try doing a web search on commercial printing inks, ink for silk screening, or a few similar listings. You should be able to find a printing company you can contact and ask who their ink supplier is. Good luck!

You cannot easily paint Polyethylene, Polypropylene or of course many other plastics including Teflon.
You can paint vinyl.
So if your plastic is one of the above, forget painting it and go to glazing it with a Polymer type finish that is used on automobiles to restore their luster and can be purchased at Walmart.Can anyone recommend a high quality clear coat spray paint that can be used on plastic?
How about a '; Laquer?';
If you sand the item between coats with a wet sandpaper like 800 grit it will bring up the shine. Reg spray paint (not just the ';special plastic paint'; will work on plastic as well. You may have put on too thick of a coat also, do very thin coats.
