• Do you offer helpful tips when using Quick Dry Paint Sticks?

  The possibilities are endless with Crayola Quick Dry Paint Sticks! These colorful tools are a water-based, soft, solid stick. They’re soft enough to create on almost any surface.

  For a 60 Second Dry Time:

  • Use on porous surfaces, such as copy paper, poster board or construction paper. Non-porous surfaces, such as canvas board, will add to your dry time.
  • A little goes a long way! Only use one or two layers of color. Adding more layers will add to your dry time.
  • Make sure you use the paint sticks in a low humidity environment.
  • Use a fan or blower dryer (no heat) to help them dry quicker.
