Pretty good but not quite black
Super dark grey paint. Good flow and paint quality, nice thickness and smooth and not transparent. Happy with it, even though not as black as hoped. Be sure to put cap back on safely.

Apple Barrel Acrylic Paint in Black is a dependable staple for arts and crafts projects. The 2 ounce size is perfect for both small creative projects and larger base coating work, making it easy to keep on hand for a variety of DIY needs. The paint has a smooth consistency that spreads evenly and provides strong coverage, often needing only one coat to achieve a deep solid black finish. One of the best features is how quickly it dries. Projects move along faster thanks to the short drying time, which is especially helpful when working on layered designs or crafting with kids. The matte finish looks clean and professional once dry, without unwanted shine. This paint works well across multiple surfaces including wood, canvas, paper, and craft foam, making it very versatile. Cleanup is simple with just soap and water while the paint is still wet, which keeps the process stress free. For the price, this is an excellent value that delivers consistent results every time. It is an affordable, high quality acrylic paint that performs reliably for beginners and experienced crafters alike.

I got this to blacken a project for an astronomy application - I have used countless types of acrylic paints in the past for many applications, so I found this one also very nice to use. Mixes well, bottle a convenient size for many arts and crafts. Paint dries very flat black/matte finish. Excellent coverage during application. Price was very good and recommended! THanks!

I cut a dining table into a coffee table—this paint perfectly matched and allowed me to paint the feet of the table. It looks so professional!

When it comes to craft paints, Apple Barrel Acrylic Paint is a staple in my hobby room for a reason. This 2-ounce bottle of Black (20504) is exactly what you need for everything from base-coating wood projects to fine detailing on canvas. The consistency is perfect—creamy and smooth—allowing it to glide onto surfaces without being too watery or clumping up. It’s a versatile "all-purpose" paint that works on wood, plaster, terra cotta, and even certain plastics. The pigment in this specific black shade is impressively deep. Some budget paints can come off as a dark charcoal or look streaky, but this provides a rich, matte black finish that usually only requires one or two coats for full opacity. It dries remarkably fast, which is a huge plus when you're working on multi-layered projects and don't want to wait hours between steps. Once it's dry, the finish is durable and doesn't have that tacky or sticky feel that some other brands tend to leave behind. Cleanup is another area where this paint shines. Since it’s water-based and non-toxic, I don't have to worry about harsh chemicals, and brushes clean up easily with just a bit of soap and warm water. For the price, the value is unbeatable. You’re getting a high-quality, reliable product that performs just as well as some of the more expensive "professional" acrylics at a fraction of the cost. Whether you're a seasoned artist or just doing a quick DIY project with the kids, this is a must-have in your kit.
