LUKAS Acrylic Pouring MediumsSave Up to80%Off list…no noticeable cavities and absolutely no cracking. The rule of thumb is the lower viscosity of the paint, such as ink, the smaller the ratio of the pouring medium, while thicker heavy body paint would receive a more significant portion of the medium. You can use virtually any acrylic based color,… The Unique, next level of pouring medium! More of what you love and less of what you don't like about pouring! When added to acrylic paint, traditional pouring mediums generate random cells of color; as a result, most pourers add silicone to the mix to create more interesting shapes. LUKAS Pouring Medium is unique because you can create more dramatic effects without adding silicone and still produce spectacular cell formations. Other pouring mediums on the market such as Liquitex are very tacky until thoroughly dry causing dust particles to interfere with results. Surface defects from craters to cracks are a pitfall of traditional and household pouring mediums. LUKAS Pouring Medium is a real breakthrough because it dries to a beautiful satin sheen with almost no noticeable cavities and absolutely no cracking. The rule of thumb is the lower viscosity of the paint, such as ink, the smaller the ratio of the pouring medium, while thicker heavy body paint would receive a more significant portion of the medium. You can use virtually any acrylic based color, but we suggest richly pigmented colors! You can pour this flexible acrylic medium over almost any substrate, but it is better to pour on a hard flat surface such as a wooden panel. By changing mix ratios, variety of colors, viscosity, and types of substrates, it is almost impossible to run out of distinct variations. If you did five pours every day for the rest of your life, you’d only scratch the surface on the final creations you could create! LUKAS Pouring Medium is the next level of pouring medium designed to create the most beautiful and interesting pours. If for any reason you don’t feel that LUKAS Pouring Medium yields the best results in pouring, you can return it for a full refund.

Fabric Medium - A fluid medium incorporating an acrylic polymer with ultimate flexibility and adhesion. Enhances the workability of acrylic paint on fabric. Controls bleeding of colors thinned with water. Flow Aid - A binder-free aqueous solution with surfactants. Use in conjunction with any acrylic medium or acrylic color when increased flow and absorption and decreased film tension and friction are required. Iridescent Medium - A fluid medium incorporating an acrylic polymer with ultra-fine pearlescent mica pigment. Produces a range of iridescent or metallic colors when mixed into acrylic colors. LiquiThick Thickening Gel - A binder-free heavy body gel with high levels of gelling agents. Used in small amounts, produces handling characteristics very close to that of oil or encaustic paint. At higher concentrations, can thicken paint or acrylic mediums to "cake" or sculptural consistency. Pouring Medium - A fluid medium incorporating an acrylic polymer with high resin solids. Creates even puddles, poured sheets, and flowing applications of color. Slow-Dri Fluid Retarder - A binder-free fluid with slow drying agents. Increases 'open' (working) time of acrylic paint. Reduces paint skinning-over on palette. Increases blending time, making blending of colors and detail brushwork easier. Slow-Dri Gel Retarde - A binder-free gel with slow drying agents. Designed to be used with Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Color and Heavy Body mediums. Increases 'open' (working) time of acrylic paint. String Gel - A medium viscosity medium incorporating an acrylic polymer with a resinous, stringy consistency. Enhances depth of color and increases transparency and flow. Masking Fluid - Masking Fluid is a colorless, latex-based liquid that you can use to mask areas. Many artists use Liquitex Masking Fluid to block off sections of a painting and allow the surface to show through. Crackle Paste - You can use Liquitex Crackle Paste on its own or mix with acrylic color to create a crackle effect that is structurally stable on rigid surfaces. Glass Medium - You can mix Liquitex Glass Medium with acrylic color to adhere paint on slick non-porous materials like glass. The medium dries to a high gloss, scratch-resistant finish once heat set. Gold Metallic Medium - With Liquitex Gold Metallic Medium, you can give acrylic paint a metallic gold effect or use it on its own to add gold surface highlights. Silver Metallic Medium - With Liquitex Silver Metallic Medium, you can give acrylic paint a metallic silver effect or use it on its own to add silver surface highlights. See More

Liquitex Acrylic Gels & PastesSave Up to60%Off list…paint into slow-drying silkscreen ink with Liquitex Silkscreen Medium. The medium changes the thickness of water-based acrylic paints by increasing fluidity so you can use them for silkscreening and mono-printing. This acrylic medium increases paint volume and drying time but doesn't affect paint… Add texture, enhance color, increase transparency! Liquitex Acrylic Mediums are made from 100% acrylic polymer emulsion and produce strong films when dry. When added to acrylic paint, they modify the paint handling characteristics, appearance or volume to produce an infinite variety of effects. Liquitex Gel Mediums can add texture, enhance color and increase transparency within your work. Gels also add "open time" as they tend to dry slower than thinner paint films. These mediums also modify acrylic paints in a variety of ways and, since they contain acrylic resins, tend to improve adhesion and durability. Modeling Pastes are thick acrylic gel blended with marble dust for a strong durable, opaque texture. Key Features: * 100% acrylic polymer emulsion * Add texture, enhance color * Increase transparency * Variety of effects * Perfect For: * Modifying paint handling characteristics * Extending heavy body paint * Impasto, relief, or sculptural effects. * Adhesion and durability Flexible Modeling Paste - Matte, opaque preparation of marble dust and polymer emulsion. Use on a flexible surface for heavy textures and 3D forms. Gloss Gel - This heavy body gloss medium and extender makes acrylic colors more transparent. Heavy Gel (Gloss) - Gives acrylic colors a high degree of drag and density. Great for impasto techniques and glazes. Light Modeling Paste - Putty-like compound that can be shaped while wet or carved when dry. Will not crack or chip. Non-toxic. Matte Gel - Reduces gloss of acrylic colors. Also used as a matte collage adhesive. Super Heavy Gel (Gloss) - Add to acrylic colors to form a sculptural, high-peak consistency. Dries clear with very low shrinkage. Great for collage and mixed media. Super Heavy Gel (Matte)- A super thick gel which retains high-peaks and crisp brush and knife strokes with little shrinkage. Modeling Paste - Putty-like compound that can be shaped while wet and carved when dry. Slow-Dri Blending Gel - This fluid medium will increase the open working time of your acrylics by up to 40%. Dries clear to a flexible, non-yellowing and water-resistant film that will not change the viscosity of your color. Ultra Matte Gel - Use to extend paint up to double amounts without changing color. Dries to a matte finish while maintaining color opacity. AP non-toxic. Liquitex Satin Gel Medium- is made of a 100% acrylic polymer emulsion and creates a durable, flexible film resistant to abrasion once dry. When added to acrylic paint, the satin gel increases texture and extends volume with a satin finish. You can also use the gel medium as a strong adhesive. Silkscreen Medium- You can transform acrylic paint into slow-drying silkscreen ink with Liquitex Silkscreen Medium. The medium changes the thickness of water-based acrylic paints by increasing fluidity so you can use them for silkscreening and mono-printing. This acrylic medium increases paint volume and drying time but doesn't affect paint color or opacity. Extended drying time lets you position ink to create the exact printed fabric designs you want.
