Description
- Prepare your color for smooth, wet-look, craze-free pours by lowering viscosity and increasing flexibility.
- Gives even poured puddles and acrylic skins
- Results in a smooth surface, with no crazing, cracking or bubbles
- Dries to a high gloss, wet-look finish
- Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
- Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability
- Maintains color opacity
- Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
- Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
- For best pours, start with with a tablespoon of Soft Body color to a cup of Pouring Medium (around 5% color to 95% medium) and adapt to suit your technique
- To use with Acrylic Ink or Heavy Body Acrylic, adjust ratio to get your desired consistency
- Stir gently to avoid creating foam – if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
- Use as a regular fluid medium extender – mix as much as you like into acrylic color to create the volume and viscosity you want
- Crazing and cracking can occur when the flow heights are very uneven so ensure your poured surface is level when drying
- To achieve a matte-look pour, a final application of Matte Spray Varnish over a dry Pouring Medium/Soft Body pour will give a smoother, more fluid result than using a matte paint or medium
- Do not shake or vigorously over-stir as this can impact the smooth appearance when dry
- Do not use with any non-acrylic media
- The Cincinnati, Ohio based company Permanent Pigments created Liquitex, the first water-based acrylic paint for artists in 1955. The name Liquitex stands for “Liquid texture.” The Liquitex brand has been at the forefront of paint ever since, leading the industry with a number of firsts, Gloss and Matte Meduims, Hue colours in place of more expensive pigments, iridescent acrylics and many more.
