Liquitex Gloss Super Heavy Gel is a super thick gel with high surface drag used to create a stiff "oil-like" feel.
-
Dramatically increases viscosity to create a stiff, oil paint-like consistency that holds high peaks and sculptural shape.
-
Increases surface gloss, color depth and transparency.
-
Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability.
-
Slows drying time and gives minimal shrinkage.
-
Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality.
How to use
- Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products.
- Mix with Matte Gel to create a custom satin super heavy body 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 increase viscosity and transparency - the more you add, the more transparent your color will become.
- 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 -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.
Use with Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic and Liquitex Soft Body Acrylic colours.
