What surface(s) does acrylic paint work on?

I have acrylic paints, I don't have any canvas, but, I do have watercolor paper. Would the acrylics be good on the watercolor paper? What other surfaces would the acrylics be good on? Please be specific :) (eg. plastic, glass, metal, tile)What surface(s) does acrylic paint work on?
acrylic is very versatile, it'll work on just about anything.What surface(s) does acrylic paint work on?
you can use acrylics watered down a bit on watercolor paper...creates a wash type effect. I have used it this way before and the colors are more brilliant than typical watercolor.


You do have to be careful about plastic, metal or other slick surfaces because acrylics are ';plastic'; and will form a layer that can be peeled off or crack if too thick.
depend on which plastics, i painted a couple of stuff on my wall, sometimes you can get plastci objects such as door stops that will say ';paintable'; on the packageing , and no it'd be better to go buy a canvas rather than water color paper, or even the rough side of a posterboard, it will work on untreated metal but will scratch of easily, it works on glass too if it's high quality acrylic, and it's not mixed with much water, as far as other slick surfaces though good luck, cuz ive never had much.
I would not use water color paper and the reason why is because it will draw the moisture out of the paint and leave it very dull . You ( can ) use it on glass, plastic,metal,and tiles. because they are not porous.


Any surface that is really not porous.
Pretty much everything.





Watercolor paper, or any other paper, will do just fine.


Metal is ok and so is tile...just scuff up the tile first with some sand paper.
Plastic, glass, fabric, almost anything except paper since it is fast drying!
paper, metal
