Liquitex Basics Gloss Heavy Gel

Mix with paint to make it much thicker, better for blending, and glossier - or use as a collaging adhesive.

What it does:

• Thickens fluid/medium body paints, giving an oil paint-like texture that holds brush and knife marks

• Increases surface gloss, color depth and transparency

• Slows drying time so you achieve better color blends

• Makes your color go further without affecting stability

• Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality

How to use it:

• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products - Basics and Professional

• Mix with Matte Gel to create a custom satin finish

• Can be thinned by diluting with up to 25% water - distilled water will give best results

• Mix as much as you like into acrylic color to create the consistency and transparency you want - the more you add, the more transparent your color will become

• Apply with a brush as a collaging glue

How not to use it:

• Do not vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry

• Do not use with any non-acrylic compatible media
