Liquitex Medium Matte Super Heavy Gel 237 ml

Reduce shine, extend volume and dramatically thicken, while extending open time - or use as a strong collaging adhesive.

What it does

• Dramatically increases viscosity to create a stiff, oil paint-like consistency that holds high peaks and sculptural shape
• Reduces surface gloss, increases color depth and transparency
• Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability
• Slows drying time and gives minimal shrinkage
• Acts as a heavy-duty collaging adhesive
• Primes rough exterior walls for gesso application before mural painting
• Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality

How to use it

• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
  
• Mix with Gloss Gel to create a custom satin gel
  
• 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 viscosity and transparency you want - the more you add, the more transparent your color will become
  
• Mix into Heavy Body Acrylic to extend volume and maintain viscosity
  
• Mix into Soft Body or Acrylic Ink to extend volume and thicken
  
• 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 vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry
• Do not use with any non-acrylic compatible media
