Liquitex Texture Gel Medium 237ml Natural Sand

Liquitex Texture Gel Medium Natural Sand is a fine-textured gel that dries to the appearance of glossy beach sand.

• Natural sand particles add structure and texture to this 100% acrylic polymer gel
• Dries to a glossy, 'beach sand' finish
• Highly flexible and adhesive
• Will not chip or crack on canvas
• Gives an opaque/semi-opaque appearance - the thicker you apply the more opaque it becomes
• Can be used on its own, mixed with color or overpainted once dry
• When mixed with acrylic color, improves blending and gives oil-style stiffness
• Provides an excellent textured ground or underpainting medium for acrylics, pastels and graphite - great for delicate marks and blending
• Apply thickly to create bold 3D effects, or finely to give surface texture
• Maintains color adhesion, durability and archival quality

How to use

• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
• Apply with knife or brush
• Can be thinned with a small amount of distilled water if required
• Mix with different consistencies and ratios of acrylic color/medium to create custom texture
• Start by adding very small amounts of color and build up as needed
• Overpaint when dry with acrylic color
• To use as a ground - apply a thin layer to surface and leave to dry
• Apply thickly for sculptural texture
• Mix with Gloss Medium to create a textured glaze
• For abstract effects, apply different colors with a knife, building layers dry or wet in wet
• Can be mixed with acrylic-compatible powdered pigmentsIf varnishing, don't be too vigorous as this can cause clouding or foaming - spray varnish will give best results
• Do not use with any non-acrylic compatible media

Use with Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic and Liquitex Soft Body Acrylic colours.
