## Description

From the manufacturer Liquitex Acrylic Mediums In addition to the widest array of Professional and Student colors, Liquitex offers the broadest possible range of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at every stage of the painting process. We understand that mediums are often a difficult concept to grasp until you actually dive into them, so we’ve tried to simplify usage by classifying products in three distinct categories: Prep, Paint, and Finish. Prep Surface preparations set the foundation for stable and permanent color applications by sealing and adding tooth to almost any painting surface. We offer five different types of prep products available to accommodate all types of work. Paint Within the painting category, there are several different types of products you would use besides the color itself. They are Fluid Mediums, Gel Mediums, Additives, and Texture Gels. Each of these products are explained further within this brochure. These painting mediums allow an artist to adjust the working and optical properties of the paint film to accomplish an astonishing variety of techniques and applications. Finish Varnishes are applied over a completed piece of work to change or unify the surface sheen and protect the painted surface from the environment and ultraviolet light. Whether you are Prepping the surface, Painting the masterpiece, or adding the crucial Finishing touch, Liquitex offers the proper medium to achieve any desired result. Explore your possibilities even further by mixing Liquitex acrylic color with any of our mediums. Gel Mediums All Gel Mediums Add Body Increase 'open' time Dry transparent or translucent Extend the volume of paint Hold brush or knife marks Make an excellent archival adhesive for collage Gel Mediums add body to thinner paint for impasto techniques as well as extending color volume and adding transparency. Gels also add 'open time' as they tend to dry slower than thinner paint films. These mediums also also modify acrylic paints in a variety of ways and, since they contain acrylic resins, tend to improve adhesion and durability. Modeling Paste A very thick, matte, opaque preparation of marble dust and polymer emulsion used to build heavy textures on rigid surfaces. This product handles like clay and dries to a very hard stone-like surface. Can be mixed with acrylic color or over-painted when dry. Makes an excellent substrate for acrylic paint, oil paint, oil pastel, oil bars, watercolor, graphite, or dry pastel. Great for sculptural applications and may be sanded, carved, or drilled when dry. For use on rigid supports.

Review: Ottima per sprigionare la vostra creatività - Se sei un appassionato di texture art o stai cercando di avvicinarti a questo mondo, questa pasta modellante professionale rappresenta un'ottima scelta. Pro: - Facilità di utilizzo: La consistenza della pasta è perfettamente bilanciata: né troppo rigida né troppo morbida, consentendo un'applicazione semplice e precisa; - Alta versatilità: Ideale per creare texture dettagliate e personalizzate su vari tipi di superfici (personalmente l'ho usata su tela e legno). Inoltre è facilmente amalgamabile con i colori acrilici per dare un tocco di colore ai tuoi progetti durante la lavorazione oppure può essere colorata successivamente con pigmenti, acrilici o vernici a termine asciugatura; - Asciugatura uniforme: Si asciuga senza crepe, mantenendo intatta la qualità del lavoro. Fate però attenzione a non usarne troppa, specialmente se la vostra intenzione è creare un quadro da appendere: peso e gravità potrebbero giocarvi brutti scherzi; Facilità di utilizzo: Sicura sia per uso professionale e amatoriale. Contro: Non ho riscontrato alcun aspetto negativo. La qualità e la facilità d'uso la rendono perfetta anche per chi è alle prime armi. In conclusione, questa pasta modellante rappresenta il connubio ideale tra professionalità e accessibilità, rendendola un acquisto consigliato per chiunque voglia sperimentare o approfondire l’arte delle texture. La consiglio vivamente!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this what I should use to transfer a photo to cloth?**
A: Yes. If you laser print your photo onto the shiny side of the a label’s backing paper (you have to peel off and discard/use elsewhere the actual label) you can just just peel it off after drying instead of the water and rub method!

**Q: Description states, "Usually ships within 2 to 4 months". I'm hoping that is an error because I was just about to order this.**
A: It depends on seller. If you want to order this with current seller which lead time to ships is 2-4 month, try to contact and confirm with them. It might be an error like you said. Or you might try to order this with another seller with less lead time to ship. The 99 Give Store usually ships this item within 3-4 business days.

**Q: I used this to create textures for my painting and it just shrank and flattened. I thought this was suppose to give texture and high peaks. How come?**
A: Firstly, the product will flatten out on a flat surface as it dries - this is an unavoidable effect of gravity. "High peaks" must be carefully sculpted and then reshaped while drying - consider drying your piece upside down. Let gravity do its work. Secondly, this product is designed to be used with other Liquitex acrylic paints - if you're mixing it with another type of paint, an unfavorable chemical reaction may be affecting your desired result. The same holds true if you are applying it over a painted surface which has dried. Third, you could consider adding a stiffening agent, such as quick setting acrylic adhesive, to your mixture. This will force the gel to "set up" quickly and stiffen. Experiment with a little bit of material first.

**Q: After I transfer a photo, can I use this on top as a finish or is it just for the transfer process?**
A: You use it as a top coat, it dries clear and works as a seal
