Abstract from DBPedia
    Paint is any pigmented liquid, liquefiable, or solid mastic composition that, after application to a substrate in a thin layer, converts to a solid film. It is most commonly used to protect, color, or provide texture. Paint can be made in many colors—and in many different types. Paint is typically stored, sold, and applied as a liquid, but most types dry into a solid. Most paints are either oil-based or water-based and each has distinct characteristics. For one, it is illegal in most municipalities to discard oil-based paint down household drains or sewers. Clean-up solvents are also different for water-based paint than they are for oil-based paint. Water-based paints and oil-based paints will cure differently based on the outside ambient temperature of the object being painted (such as a house.) Usually, the object being painted must be over 10 °C (50 °F), although some manufacturers of external paints/primers claim they can be applied when temperatures are as low as 2 °C (35 °F).

    塗料(とりょう)とは、対象物を保護・美装、または、独自な機能を付与するために、その表面に塗り付ける材料のこと。 日本には古くから漆塗りに代表される塗料の歴史はあったが、洋式塗料の歴史は明治初頭に始まる。日本では家庭用品品質表示法の適用対象とされており雑貨工業品品質表示規程に定めがある。
