LIQUITEX Gloss Medium 237ml
Give your paint a gloss finish, while thinning and extending its volume. Or use as a collaging adhesive and fixative.
-
What it does
Increases surface gloss, 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 Matte 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
