I don't do body paint art; I just paint large areas in a uniform color. So I can't say whether this paint is good for fine artwork. But it's the best for covering bodies in paint when you need it to last overnight. Much easier to apply, with fewer fumes, and longer-lasting, than Reel Body paint (which is the most-expensive and in every way the worst I've used). Seems to resist abrasion a little better than Paasche and ProAiir Tattoo, but also to give less coverage. An ounce of ProAiir gives nearly twice the coverage and costs twice as much, so they're about even.
The only downside is the upside: It's VERY difficult to remove. "Comes off easily with isopropyl alcohol"--I guess that must be 100% isopropyl, because it doesn't come off with my 99.9% isopropyl. Isopropyl will clean it off countertops and floors--thank goodness--but not off skin. It comes off better with a little water, plus either soap , or hard rubbing with your bare fingers. Either way, it will take days of rubbing until your skin can't take any more to clean it off. And that vertical stripe in the center of your back that you can't reach--you're just gonna have to wait 2-3 weeks for that layer of skin cells to flake off. I recommend using ProAiir Hybrid for body areas that are sensitive or that you need clean the day after (throat, back of neck, wrists, hands), and this paint on everything else.
I never have enough time to paint myself, let it dry, apply a barrier spray, let it dry, apply powder, and get to…
