How Are Oil Paints Made and Used? Oil paints are made by mixing refined oils with powder pigments to create a stiff paste consistency. Steel roller mills then grind down this paint paste. The consistency of oil paint colors is critical in this process. The standard for high-quality oil paint is a smooth paste. Oil paints are thicker and heavier than many other types of paint. If an artist wants a more fluid and spreadable paint, they may mix oil paints with a painting liquid such as turpentine. Pure oil paints also take a long time to dry compared to other paints. So in some cases, an artist may add a liquid drying material such as siccative to the paint to accelerate drying.
