Well, to be blunt: brown would. Working with a light grey won't be much different than working with a white paint, except the brown will come out less vibrant.
There's a lot of ways to make brown, a simple way would be to add a reddish orange to a bit of dark blue.
That would all depend on the use of the surfaces of the item painted. Acrylics will fade in sunlight. But you can use an acrylic clear coat that absorbs UV light . That is the thing that destroys paint on outside items.
Acrylic is generally easier to shine so would be shinier but the most definite way to tell would be to get a dab of cellulose thinner and rub a cloth on it.
Acrylic paint would be ok, and there are new paints called low or no VOC paints, which means Volatile Organic Compounds , the outgassing of smelly , toxic parts of paint.
In most acrylic paints yes. You can buy phthalate free paint but if it doesn't state it is so, i would assume there is phthalates in it. Most paint you will purchase is largely comprised of toluene, xylene, Ethyl benzene, and phthalates, as well as pigments and dye. It is pretty harsh stuff.
Yes... The wear and tear is going to be the biggest problem thou... If it were me, I would just paint the top part of the key not the bottom part were you put it into the lock, because it will probable chip over time. You would want to use a good acrylic paint and then use a good quality polyurethane or acrylic media to paint over the paint- You can find this in any good arts and crafts store.

You can paint on a photograph. Normal acrylic would work.

I would use a good primer first.
It would taste bad. Very bad. Its a trap.
The transition metal that is in the compound of brilliant yellow acrylic paint containing titanium dioxide would be...CADMIUM your welcome (: (: (:
I would. It will let you use less acrylic for the same vividness of color, since the acrylic won't soak into the wood.
Well I learned from experience NOT to use house paint, I would say Acrylic paint or spray paint. Make sure to use gloss!
I would use acrylic since when it dries, it is water resistant. Oil paint might work, but would take longer to dry.
There are many uses for acrylics. An acrylic is anything based on the structure CH2=CHCOOH which is acrylic acid. Polymers are made from this and its derivatives. They tend to be very stable to Ultra Violet Light and thus a key use is acrylic paint. They are also used is to make almost anything which would be categorized as 'plastic' such as mobile phones and artificial finger nails as a cosmetic for females.
Tempra paint is a water based paint, I don't see a problem using a water based acrylic, if this bird house will be outside, I would add some UV inhibitors to keep the sun from fading out your paint job.
yes. i had the same question but my brother told me the answer.
