The possibilities are endless with Crayola Quick Dry Paint Sticks! These colorful tools are a water-based, soft, solid stick. They’re soft enough to create on almost any surface.

For a 60 Second Dry Time:

• Use on porous surfaces, such as copy paper, poster board or construction paper. Non-porous surfaces, such as canvas board, will add to your dry time.
• A little goes a long way! Only use one or two layers of color. Adding more layers will add to your dry time.
• Make sure you use the paint sticks in a low humidity environment.
• Use a fan or blower dryer (no heat) to help them dry quicker.

If you love these, we know you’ll want to explore our entire Project collection.

Have questions about your Color Wonder Magic Light Brush? We have the answers!

For Best Results:

• Always protect your work surface!

• If your set has a paint pot strip, it must be snapped into the base until it clicks for the Magic Light Brush to operate. 

• Turn the power switch to the "on" position. – The unit is "on" when the switch is under the l. The O indicates "off".

• If your set has a paint pot strip, check to ensure the brush tip is tightened. To activate the light brush, hold the brush tip over a single paint pot. Watch the bristles turn the color of the paint inside. Dip the bristles into the gel paints and start painting on the Color Wonder Paper (a thin layer of paint works best). The brush tip will stay illuminated for approximately 10 seconds while it goes from paint to paper.

• If your set has paint pads,the handle will light up and cycle through all the colors. When that is done, press the bristles in the middle of the paint pad for a few seconds.The handle will temporarily light up the color of the paint. Brush the bristles against the paint pad several times. An invisible layer of paint will stick to the bristles. Brush onto Color Wonder Paper and watch the colors magically appear! 

• Between each color change, wipe the bristles with a dry paper towel.

• When creative time is done, be sure to close the paint pot strip covers to prevent the paint from drying out.

• If your set has paint pads, the cover should be placed on to protect the paint pads. Since the paint pads will not dry out, the cover does not need to be airtight and replacing the paint pads is not necessary. The paint pads are securely sealed in the unit during the manufacturing process and not removable, so we do not recommend attempting to remove them. 
  

Battery Savers:

• To help preserve battery life, the Magic Light Brush will automatically turn off after 5 minutes if unused.
• To reactivate, push power switch to "off" and then back "on". Turn the power switch off and then on.
