About this product:

• Gives your paint a gloss finish, while thinning and extending its volume;
• You can also use it as a collaging adhesive and fixative;
• Increases surface gloss, colour depth, and transparency while decreasing the viscosity of heavier body acrylics to improve flow;
• It will also extend colour without affecting acrylic stability and maintain paint adhesion, durability, and archival quality;
• This medium can also be used to make a fixative for pastel, graphite, or chalk, and as a lightweight collaging glue;
• Fully inter-mixable with all Liquitex products;
• Can be thinned by diluting with up to 25% water – distilled water will give the best results;
• Mix as much as you like into acrylic colour to create the viscosity and transparency required – the more medium added, the thinner and more transparent the colour will become;
• Stir gently to avoid creating foam – if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear;
• This medium 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 atomiser or airbrush;
• Apply with a brush or sponge as a lightweight collaging glue;
• 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.
