• Iridescent Medium - Turns ordinary transparent colors into vibrant metallics. It dries translucent and will not oxidize. AP non-toxic.
  

• LiquiThick Thickening Gel - An additive that is excellent for sculptural effects when a matte finish is desired. Gives the handling characteristic of oil or encaustic paint when added to water-based acrylic paint. 
  

• Pouring Medium - Designed to reduce crazing in poured applications. This fluid medium dries clear, glossy and flexible.
  

• Slow-Dri Fluid Retarder - A fluid additive that slows the drying time of acrylic paints and mediums by up to 40%. An absolutely essential additive if working in drier climates.
