The invention provides a colorful coating. The colorful coating comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 50-55% of film forming matter, 2-6% of water-based color paste, 10-16% of accessory ingredients and 35-40% of deionized water. According to the film forming matter, synthetic copolymer emulsion is used as a film forming matter of the coating. The accessory ingredients comprise the following components in parts by weight: 0.2-0.4 part of dispersing agent, 2-5 parts of film forming additive, 4-6 parts of antifreezing agent, 0.1-0.2 part of antiseptic and antimildew agent, 2-3 parts of thickening agent, 0.1-0.3 part of defoaming agent, 0.2-0.6 part of fragrance enhancer and 0.2-0.6 part of thixotropic agent. The colorful coating is water-based coating; the coating has the paint characteristic and is free of toxicity, non-combustible and slight in fragrance, so that coating is good in safety during storing, transporting and using, free of pollution to the environment during construction and free of fire danger; the dried coating is tough, durable, wearable and anti-scratch; and meanwhile, the coating has resistance to washing with ethyl alcohol, detergent and water.
