Liquitex Basics Acrylic Gold is a student-grade, water-based acrylic in a 400 ml (13.5 fl oz) squeeze bottle. The large bottle suits painters who use a lot of one metallic color, such as underpainting, backgrounds, craft projects and classroom work. It sits below Liquitex's professional Heavy Body line in pigment load and coverage, so it is less opaque and less lightfast than artist-grade metallics. Reviewers of the Basics line generally find it a solid value for practice and decorative work, while noting that metallic shades need more coats than premium golds.

Painters who use Liquitex Basics treat it as a dependable budget workhorse, and the big bottle is a common reason to choose it. Owners of the metallic shades say the gold needs several coats and looks less brilliant than artist-grade gold, but works well for practice, backgrounds and craft work.
