Paul, there are several reasons I choose to use this paint. One is adhesion, this bonds so well no acrylic could compare. Dry time is almost instantaneous, I can shoot color on the back, pick out the netting and clip it on right away. Color selection and ease of mixing colors. And the main reason is its ability to carry pigment after being reduced to water like consistency. The pigment mixes so well with the reducer it is never gritty, very fine. I hear a lot of acrylic users complain about build up on the tip, that is something I don't have to deal with. One more fun thing is the pearl and flake dry powders that I mix with an intercoat clear for some nice effects.
