Liquitex offers the broadest range of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at
every stage of the painting process. Liquitex Gel Mediums add body to thinner
paint for impasto techniques as well as extending color volume and adding
transparency. Gels tend to dry slower than thinner paint films, allowing for
more workable time. Gel mediums can modify acrylic paints in a variety of ways
and since they contain acrylic resins, tend to improve adhesion and
durability. Liquitex gel mediums can add texture enhance color and increase
transparency within your work Liquitex Matte Gel Painting Medium dries

Heavy Body Artist Color. Translucent when wet, transparent when dry. Thicker
applications result in less transparent, dry medium films. Mix with Liquitex
