Is this paint waterproof when dry?

How long does it take to dry?

Troubleshooting
The flip-cap nozzle is clogged.
Use a needle or pin to clear the dried paint from the opening, then rinse with warm water.
The paint feels too thick for fine detail work.
Add a tiny drop of water to a small amount of paint on your palette to thin the consistency without compromising the finish.
Paint is streaking during application.
Use a damp foam blending tool or a soft-bristled brush to apply thinner, multiple layers rather than one thick layer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the paint, ensure your surface is free of dust or oils. Apply the paint directly from the 1 oz flip-cap bottle onto a palette or directly onto your journal page, spreading it with a brush, sponge, or brayer.
Compatibility: This paint is designed to pair with the Ranger Dylusions Ink Spray range, stencils, and adhesive products. It can be applied over acrylic gesso or directly onto scrapbook paper and cardstock.
Care: Always snap the flip-cap shut securely after use to prevent the paint from hardening inside the nozzle. If the nozzle becomes clogged, clear it with a thin pin and wipe the opening with a damp cloth before storing. Store bottles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the pigments.
