Nicpro Acrylic Paint Set, 14 Colors

Key specifications

For classroom projects, shared art sessions, or a canvas that needs a generous background coat, running out of paint mid-project is a real nuisance. The Nicpro set is built around bulk use: it includes 14 colors in large pump bottles, with 140 oz / 4.2 L of paint in total.

Each bottle holds 10 oz / 300 mL. The paints are water-based and described as highly pigmented, with a creamy texture intended for blending, layering, base coats, and background work. That’s a lot of paint compared with a small starter set, which is useful when several people are painting or a project uses the same colors repeatedly. The tradeoff is the amount to store and dispense, this scale may be more than an occasional small craft needs.

Who it’s for

This set makes sense for students, beginners, artists, and craft groups who want a broad starter palette without buying small quantities one at a time. It can cover a practical painting session: pump a few colors onto a palette, mix a custom shade using the color wheel, then use the larger bottles for base coats or repeated work. The pump setup may also make dispensing easier than tipping a full bottle over a tray, especially when paint is being shared.

The listed surfaces include canvas, paper, wood, rock, ceramic, cardboard, craft foam, fabric, plastic, and glass. That range is useful for mixed craft projects, though the description doesn’t provide surface-specific preparation or finish guidance. If your project depends on a particular result on one material, the broad surface list alone won’t tell you how it will perform there.

In the box

The listed contents are 14 acrylic paint colors in 10 oz / 300 mL pump bottles and a color wheel. The wheel is intended to help with color relationships and mixing, which can be handy for beginners trying to make a new shade from a limited palette. The product description doesn’t specify other included painting tools, so don’t assume brushes, canvases, or palettes are part of the set.

Practical doubts

Can it be used for crafts as well as canvas painting? The listed surfaces include paper, wood, rock, ceramic, cardboard, craft foam, fabric, plastic, and glass, as well as canvas. No surface-specific instructions are provided.

What does the safety information say? The formula is described as water-based and non-toxic, and as conforming to ASTM D-4236 and EN71 when used as directed. Follow the product directions for use.

Are the bottles designed for controlled dispensing? Each large bottle comes with a pump, intended to make dispensing onto a palette, tray, cup, or container easier and reduce the need for heavy pouring. Actual control will depend on how much paint your project needs.

When it makes sense

A solid pick if you expect to paint often, share supplies, or work on larger pieces where bulk paint and repeatable access to the same colors are useful. From the way it is set up, the pumps and color wheel address two everyday needs: getting paint out of large bottles and planning mixes. Not the best choice if you only need a few small portions for occasional crafts, or if storage space and a compact kit matter more than volume. For light use, a smaller set may be the more practical approach, for group work and projects with substantial coverage, this one’s quantity has a clearer purpose.
