Latex wall paint isn’t furniture paint. and it isn't exactly craft paint. It has many purposes, but there's a time and a place for something a little more magical.  A little more forgiving and something that distresses and blends  like a crafty dream, making SeaPaint perfect for Faux finishes like dry brushing or weathered wood.

Here’s when SeaPaint wins and when latex still makes sense.

Short on time or impatient crafting/diying

SeaPaint takses only about 3 minutes to dry which means it dries 10 times faster than latex. This makes it an amazing choice for those that like to create paint layered finishes, do several projects at once, or even all coats back to back insteading of waiting for that painful 2 hour recoat time with latex. 

Adhesion & film build

Furniture needs thin, durable films; SeaPaint is formulated for adhesion on slick substrates. Latex is designed for walls and can feel rubbery on furniture edges and have difficulty adhering without sanding. 

Touch & feel

• SeaPaint: smoother handfeel

• Latex: feels more like plastic.

Odor & indoor use

SeaPaint is tuned for low-odor, fast indoor projects as well as outdoor. 

Cost & coverage

• SeaPaint covers 8 times the surface area of latex.

• Latex can cover large wall areas cheaply but needs more finesse to look pro on furniture and isn't really ideal for indoor crafting.

Versatility 

SeaPaint is hands down one of the most versatile paints on the market. With it you can do projects of all kinds including wood, metal, plastic, clay, brick, and so much more. If it sits, it'll probably stick. This is it what keeps people coming back for SeaPaints again and again. Well, that and those ADHD friendly dry times. 

Latex is great for walls, but it's not ideal to get you in a creative flow state.
