hello
I don't know much about using the acrlic paints, I use GHS myself. I imagine the layering is basically the same, thin thin thin. There should be some ladies on shortly that can help.

You can also go to the search box at the top and type in acrylic there are tons of threads on the subject.

Here in the Secrist forum we only recommend the Genesis Heat set paints or now the new Authentic Reborn paints we carry. Usually people don't do the acrylic paints any more because of coming off or the paints causing bruising on the doll (maybe not now but later!).

So you can look around the forum like Tina W suggested to see what some have to say if you like. If you have more questions be sure to post! :)
