About this product:

• Turns satin paint to a dead matte finish with absolutely no sheen;
• Extends your heavy body paints by up to double volume without affecting acrylic stability, viscosity or color position - ideal when running out of a color mid painting;
• Maintains opacity levels better than any other Liquitex gel;
• Increases viscosity of fluid paints, giving a thicker consistency;
• Slows drying time and enhances appearance of brush marks;
• Maintains durability and archival quality;
• Can be thinned by diluting with up to 25% water - distilled water will give best results;
• Best used with opaque colors;
• Mix up to 50% into acrylic color to keep color and opacity the same (more than 50% will act as a pale tinting white);
• Apply with a brush as a collaging glue;
• Do not vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry.
