Give your paint a matte finish, while thinning and extending its volume. Or use as a collaging adhesive and fixative.
What it does
- Reduces surface gloss, increases color depth and transparency
- Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
- Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability
- Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
How to use it
- Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
- Mix with Gloss Medium to create a custom satin fluid medium
- Can be thinned by diluting with up to 25% water – distilled water will give best results
- Mix as much as you like into acrylic color to create the viscosity and transparency you want – the more you add, the thinner and more transparent your color will become
- Stir gently to avoid creating foam – if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
- This is semi-opaque when wet, transparent when dry
- To fix pastel, graphite or chalk, mix 1 part medium to 1 part distilled water and apply with an atomizer or airbrush
- Apply with a brush/sponge as a lightweight collaging glue
How not to use it
- Do not shake or vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry
- Do not use with any non-acrylic media
