Liquitex offers the broadest range of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at every stage of the painting process. Liquitex Gel Mediums add body to thinner paint for impasto techniques as well as extending color volume and adding transparency. Gels tend to dry slower than thinner paint films, allowing for more workable time. Gel mediums can modify acrylic paints in a variety of ways and since they contain acrylic resins, tend to improve adhesion and durability. Liquitex gel mediums can add texture enhance color and increase transparency within your work Liquitex Light Modeling Paste Gel Painting Medium is a lightweight, airy, flexible, thick sculptural gel specifically formulated to be used in thick applications where weight is a factor. Will not exhibit "mud cracking". Used alone, will dry to a matte opaque white, that readily accepts staining, if desired. APPLICATION: Apply with different tools (i.e palette knife, trowel, paint brush, or cake decorating tips) to produce different effects.
