I'm looking for a high quality multipurpose acrylic paint. It will not be used for different kinds of craft works and not for canvas painting. The first things I will use it for is painting a bottle and to dye a cotton string and I will probably use it on wood too and maybe leather.

Can I do all that with one type of paint? I'm looking for something high quality with good and lasting colors. I will only use it occationally, so small bottles is better than big.

I have been looking at liquitex, but it is mostly for canvas painting and I read it's not that great painting. It's just too much info out there for a no-painter like me to navigate. Please help. I'm building a lamp

Giving this a bump. Anyone have experience with Folk Art? They have multisurface craft paint that seems popular

I'm trying to make a high end lamp that'll look like it cost $500 dollar. I feel like old exterior paint will look cheap. I will use it on a small piece of glass and it has to be somewhat translucent
