The WD-40 Effect | Acrylic Pour Painting

[@larynanntapp6333]

I used to spray the inside of the cup with WD-40, swirl it around to cover the inside of the cup and then turn it upside down to let it drain out. Then I added my paints...worked great for dirty pours.

[@greendragonfly4831]

I did a few enormous flip cups on plywood like this. Wild lacing and cells.

[@a_planet_on_fire]

​@greendragonfly4831 cool. Did you prime the ply first?

[@larynanntapp6333]

@a_planet_on_fire I know you didn't ask me but when using plywood, it will soak up paint. I put a layer or two of Minwax Polycrilic on plywood before the pour. When I have slices from a tree (friend owns a lumber mill!) it has a beautiful grain and I don't use anything to keep it from soaking up paint...I like seeing a beautiful grain through the paint.

[@a_planet_on_fire]

@larynanntapp6333 thanks for that reply. It's much appreciated. I can believe the grain of a nice cut would be quite cool. Thx again,☮️🙂

It is not. There's no such thing either. These guys are a large community putting it all out here for the love of the POUR !!! They don't keep a whole hell of a lot of 'trade secrets'. In fact, paint pouring is the new digital Haight Ashbury with paint not L. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I know, I crack myself up, huh!?! Its a big, free bunch of people all over the world.

I would not put paint pouring and Artist in the same sentence

[@saturnslastring]

@@Itsadarknight that's a matter of personal preference. Generally I lump art into two groups. People who create things with artistic intention and things that evoke an emotional response in the viewer. Acrylic pour art can be both of those things, ergo art. I paint botanical water colors, but I see that there is technique and mastery in acrylic pour art. Anyone can do it, but so what?

Your works can calm me down fantastically, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and I look forward to more beautiful works of art. I have just one question please, please dilute the colors with water and add something else to the color so that the final effect is such a beautiful shiny picture???

The last year or so ive been watching your vids, and others using similar techniques ,and i always wondered if WD40 would do the same as silicone oil.. i have no clue where to buy that, or flotrol, but thanks to you, i know this will work! thank you!!!!

[@valsilva6346]

supermarket, auto parts store! 🇧🇷

[@MarkPenn-bv9hk]

Floetrol at a hardware store or home depot. Silicone oil at the dollar store or Micheal's crafts store or a sports store but more expensive there.

[@4.8Flatbed]

I bought silicone WD40 at walmart. Didn't know regular wd40 would have worked lol. Silicone wd40 was like $8

There's always Amazon!

[@rosemaryclark610]

I would think any oil would work, because it's the interaction between the water-based paint and the oil that makes the cells. But I'm wondering if it will affect the resin finish and it's ability to stick to the painting, and whether it affects how long the paintings stay nice. Does anybody know?

[@cyndilouwho]

Yes. So firstly, silicone and silicone based oil is the only oil you should use. Things like cooking oils dont work so well. And the reason to use only a little is because of the residue when the paint dries. The silicone oil sits on top of the painting. If COMPLETELY dry, a dry paper towel first, followed by a LIGHTLY misted-in-isopropyl alcohol paper towel will remove the residue. Be sure to carefully rub the oil off and not destroy the paint. Then, any gloss latex, acrylic, or epoxy resin finish can be applied without issue.

[@cyndilouwho]

To clarify, some people have also used coconut milk hair serums. But one of the top ingredients is silicone oil. I have always used very cheap, generic silicone lubricant sprays and i take the spray nozzle off so its just the plastic pipe and i can control drops.

[@rosemaryclark610]

@@cyndilouwho Thanks! :)

[@paultucker3789]

Beautiful, what brand of acrylic paint did you use?

[@cyndilouwho]

@@paultucker3789 i typically use cheaper, craft paint like Apple Barrel & Folk Art but recently have switched to Arteza. They are much better quality. No matter the quality, the importance really is in 1) consistency over everything. You're looking for a runny pancake batter. And 2) color choices and color coordination

Do you use a special dryer..or regular..no heat ,cool,or hot

[@andreeapreda4461]

How do you prepare the acrylics for this trick, i see it's more liquid than usual 👀

[@scottbaxendale323]

Nice bass tone.

[@ruby2411]

Apparently paint varnish can be used as well. They turn out well but there are smaller and more regular cells. If the paint is thick, you can drag the pain across the canvas and the cells will start to form.

[@tweetay03]

How to top coat them after using oils or similar tho?

[@Houseofmycology]

How do you make these? Is there anything else on the canvas before you lay down the cups of paint? Also what kind of paint do you use and is it straight paint or something added to thin it up? I really want to make my own paintings but I’m not sure how to so I’m coming to you! Thank you

[@kelli3083]

KZbin has a ton of videos that will teach you all kinds of things like getting started, items you'll need, and different techniques. You'll just have to do the research.

[@Houseofmycology]

Do you thin the paint down any? What kind of paint do you use? What name?

[@giovannifurnari8668]

Thank you 🙏

[@endscreen1shorts478]

Hi, is there any protection for acrylic paints, I would like to paint rubber fish with an airbrush, those fish will go into the water, so I need some silicone that mixes with acrylic paints and is sticky, which would stick to the rubber fish when I'm painting, any answer would be great, thanks

[@PaulaZF]

I think you might want to say: Stir Well. Stir Nicely is stirring gently and to not hurt the feelings of the white paint. 😅 I love your work and your videos. I’m an English teacher and want to give people options by teaching them.

[@JonathanK-i4p]

how did you make it so shiny did you put a clear coat after it was done it looked almost like epoxy
