Prepare your color for smooth, matte, craze-free pours while lowering viscosity and increasing flexibility. A great option to achieve the Pouring Medium effect and the ability photograph without a high gloss sheen or glare.
What it does:
For smooth, flexible pours with a matte sheen. Gives even poured puddles and acrylic skins
Results in a smooth surface, with no crazing, cracking or bubbles
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
How to use:
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
How not to use it: Do not shake or vigorously over-stir as this can impact the smooth appearance when dry. Do not use with any non-acrylic media
