But, I'm sure it did because it was in the shade. I've painted on garage doors, lots of things outside and the only problem over time is fading, especially if the artwork is in the sun. Sometimes I use exterior paint, but I usually use the better craft paints. They are very durable. If you keep records of the colors you used, you can always go back and touch up. I would check to see if the sealer is ok for outdoors. I don't seal most of the things I paint because I want the dull look. I painted artwork on my garden shed and on my house and that has not faded. My garage door has faded a little because of the sun. Also, reds seem to fade faster than most colors. Hope this helps. Good luck with your project.Lynda Bergman Decorative Artisanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08849271278750525374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200038936204946004.post-76274195165833443982019-03-04T19:46:56.909-06:002019-03-04T19:46:56.909-06:00Hi!

I am looking to paint something outdoors that will be very exposed to the weather. I was planning to prime with Kilz, Paint with craft paints, and seal with Polycrylic. Have you had much luck with paint like this outdoors?Edie Wigbabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18319057126229511173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200038936204946004.post-39625800627536845002013-04-19T22:05:48.229-05:002013-04-19T22:05:48.229-05:00Thank you so much!!Thank you so much!!Lynda Bergman Decorative Artisanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08849271278750525374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200038936204946004.post-7624313610725525462013-04-19T21:44:17.129-05:002013-04-19T21:44:17.129-05:00Oh, I love this!
