My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Acrylic craft paint vs. acrylic household latex paint

22 years ago

Does anyone know the difference between the two paints? I have used both household acrylic latex paint and acrylic craft paint on clay pots. The household one is thicker. I have researched this and cannot find an answer that makes sense to me. Thanks!
