Here are some TIPS about application made by painters who have used this product:
1. The first coat will go on beautifully, but the second coat gets a little more difficult to apply because of the absorption of it by the first coat. It might be easier for the DIYer if they dilute the second coat a tiny bit.
2. There is a picture framing effect with the paint. It is recommended to paint wet on wet -- that is, don't cut in the edges and let them dry -- cut in as you go so that you always have a wet edge.
These Paints Are Wonderful!
Reviewer: Megan in Novato, CA
I so enjoyed working with these paints.
From the moment I opened the
containers (beautiful colors!), they were better than I could have hoped.
They
were so easy to use, the paint goes so far, covers incredibly well and evenly, no
drips, no toxic smell...made my work fun!
I will definitely be back for more.
I
look forward to the next phase of this company's growth, and all the colors to
come, because its a product that really should be out there for people to know
about and try.
I've certainly been telling everyone I can about it.
Gorgeous!

We had a great experience with these paints!
The painting
itself was so easy and smelled so pleasant.
The colors were
lovely and clean.
We kept adding water, and the quality
never decreased, it remained just as beautiful as at the start.
We used Celadon for the ceiling - to look like the sky, and
it really does look like a summer sky in our living room.
We bought Stone for the walls, but it was a little too grey.
We went to Home Depot and they matched it to Ganesha (which
is what we should have bought).
The room is absolutley
gorgeous!
disappointed
Reviewer: kelly white in gilbert, arizona
I've been using your paints for nursery murals and was pleased with the results
in small quantities.
However, I recently painted my own nursery and one gallon
didn't quite do the job for the base color;
i purchased more paint to finish the
job and it's a completely different color.
I have tried contacting the company to
no avail and now our nursery is two-toned which needless to say is very
disappointing, especially considering the price of the paint.
A Pleasure to Paint
Reviewer: Dana Bishop in Green Valley, Arizona
I have had great success with these paints. I don't dread
painting as I did before I discovered Green Planet. The
colors roll on so easily, cover wonderfully and dry
unusually fast. My walls have a new depth and dimension that
are nothing short of awesome. The clean-up is amazing too;
requiring only soap and water. Even though the cost is a
little more than mainstream paints, the superb coverage
compensates for the difference in price. I haven't yet
needed to apply a second coat.
Soy resin and raw pigments
Reviewer: Stephanie Niles of Earthetarian.com in Easton, CT
I mixed the soy resin with water and different clay
pigments and got a great lazure/ glazing effect on my
walls.
The products are very versatile- giving me
different effects from different mixtures from a satin
finish to a high gloss.
Fun to work with.
Plain delicious paint
Reviewer: Kristine Bentz in Tucson, Arizona
Thank you for creating this amazing paint! We used ten
colors throughout our entire home. Every non-adobe wall and
the ceilings are dressed in clay. It feels so smooth to the
touch, smells like wet earth before it dries, and soothes
our souls to live amongst both the soft and intense colors.
Everybody who comes into our home loves the hues, from Doe
to Adobado to Harem! I highly recommend using this paint
over any other paint available.
Perfect Paint
Reviewer: Paula Wittner in Patagonia, Arizona
I recently used your paint to repaint our bathroom.
It was
really wonderful to apply and had a high- hiding
capability, great color, great feel to the touch and didn't
need any kind of sealer to protect against the inevitable
splashes that occur in a bathroom...AND it was great not to
get light headed the way I do when I use latex paint!!!!
