About this product:

• Extends the open time of your gel color/medium by 40% so it is blendable and workable for longer;
• Maintains the same level of transparency;
• Thickens and increases viscosity;
• Retains brush/knife marks;
• Ideal for dry and hot climates;
• Start by adding up to 25% of Slow-dri to your color/medium with a knife, then mix in slowly and thoroughly, and use;
• If you're working over a long period of time, mix into color on the palette to keep it fresh and skin-free for longer;
• As this is an additive – with no acrylic binders - do not add more than 25% to your color/medium and do not mix with other additives - this can cause the acrylic film to break down, leaving it sticky and prone to shrinkage;
• Do not use with any non-acrylic media.
