Dataset description
Paint is a liquid pigment that, after applied to a solid material and allowed to dry, adds a film-like layer, usually to create an image. It can be made in many colors and types, most commonly oil-based or water-based. Primitive forms of paint were used in cave paintings. Paint serves as protection, not just color in a tin or a tube. The process of making paint involves three main ingredients: pigment, binder, and solvent.
