Other products contain:

• Solvent(s), sometimes called a thinner – either an organic solvent or water is used to reduce the viscosity of the paint for better application. Water-borne paints are replacing some paints that use volatile organic compounds such as the hydrocarbons which are harmful to the atmosphere.
• Pigment(s) – prime pigments to impart colour and opacity.
• Additives – used to modify the properties of the liquid paint or dry film
• Binder (resin) – a polymer, often referred to as resin, forming a matrix to hold the pigment in place and extender. Larger pigment particles may be added to improve adhesion, strengthen the film and save binder.
