Crayola Washable Tempera Paint For Kids, Blue Paint, Classroom Supplies, Non Toxic, 32 Oz Squeeze Bottle

Good color and coverage. Washes out of clothes easily

I purchased this paint a couple years ago (not using it up as fast as I thought we would) and it is still in fine shape. I used it the other day with my kids to make a poster and it was still smooth and easy to use. So, as paint, it's great, but it's getting a 5-star review from me because in the course of making said poster, my 6-year old got some blue paint on his finger and before I could shout, "NOT ON YOUR PANTS!!!" he wiped it on the back of his khaki shorts (I'll spare you the long story as to why he was wearing khakis while painting in the first place). At any rate, the paint dried before we could get home, we both forgot about it and he put the shorts in the laundry basket that night. I found it three days later as I was tossing laundry in the washer. Long story short, with water, a little Dawn dish detergent on an old toothbrush and only a little bit of elbow grease, the paint came right out of the khaki shorts. I'd call that a winner.

I bought this for my daughter's school, as the teacher had been looking for a solution to buying the 16 oz version of these (too costly). The other option is the super huge ones, but then it's tough to get the bottom 1/4 of the paint out because it doesn't have a squeeze top on it so they end up just throwing out a lot of paint. So this so far seems to be a much better option. It's slightly more money, but in the end, ALL the paint can be used because it can be stored upside down. AND the bottle can be fully recycled because it fits in their shallow sink and can be rinsed out. A win, win!

So, I didn't try this on clothes. We bought this for an Arrested Development party, to put blue handprints all over the house. Of course I spot tested the paint first on a hidden part of the wall, and left it for a day. Most of it washed off, but left behind a faint blue tinge to the wall. So we opted to not use it directly on walls. On surfaces like glass and metal, the paint washed right off. I did use a razor blade to get the paint off one mirror, and then used a sponge to try to wipe up the little blue shavings. This was a mistake, as the paint melted, and stained the grout faintly. Oh well. I would strongly suggest you spot test this before you or your kids go crazy with it.

The bad part is the your bottle will come without cap or with a broken one
