Anotations

Scope note:

Paint with a base that is polymer, which is compound formed by the combination of two or more molecules of the same substance to produce a new compound with the same empirical formula but with higher molecular weight. It is typically made from pigments in an acrylic resin or vinyl resin, which are polymers, or a combination of both resins. It is water based, spreads out in a layer, and forms a continuous, flexible, and waterproof film of plastic when the water evaporates.
