Talk:Hammer paint

Citations and Sources definitely needed

That's not at all what I remember dimly from my paint chemistry days decades ago. As I very vaguely recall the actual hammer effect, as opposed to other features of the coating, was caused because the choice of solvents meant that as the more volatile solvents evaporated first the remaining solvents would not hold all of the paint components in solution, and some were precipitated causing the circular/cell like hammer features. But it was decades ago. Also the deliberately formulated hammer effect paints may be doing something slightly different from a hammer effect as an artifact of a paint that is about to fail testing... 212.159.44.170 (talk) 17:38, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
