What it does
-

-
Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
-
Extends colour without affecting acrylic stability
-
Gives heavier body paint an oil-like colour brilliance
-
Increases viscosity of soft body paints, giving a thicker consistency
-
Slows drying time and enhances appearance of brush strokes
How to use it
-
Mix as much as you like into acrylic colour to create the thickness and transparency you want - the more you add, the more transparent the colour will become
-
Can be thinned by diluting with up to 25% water - distilled water will give best results
-
Mix into Heavy Body Acrylic to extend volume and maintain viscosity
-
Mix into Soft Body or Acrylic Ink to increase volume and to thicken it
-
This is semi-opaque when wet, transparent when dry. When used very thickly it may dry semi-opaque
-
Apply with a brush as a collaging glue and fixative
How not to use it
-
Do not shake or vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry
-
Do not use with any non-acrylic media
