Liquitex Acrylic Glazing Medium

Liquitex Acrylic Glazing Medium

Increase transparency, lower viscosity and enhance gloss so you can create professional jewel-like glazes.

What it does

• Increases color depth, transparency and surface gloss
• Dries quickly for rapid layering
• Lowers viscosity and minimizes brush strokes
• Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability
• Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality

How to use it

• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
• Use with transparent and semi-transparent colors for rich glazed effects
• 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 create the viscosity and transparency you want - the more you add, the thinner and more transparent your color will become
• Stir gently to avoid creating foam - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
• Color will temporarily lighten and then return to its original level when dry
• Mix with Slo-Dri Medium or Slow-Dri Fluid Additive if you want to extend working time
• Let each layer dry completely before applying the next
• Apply to dry, painted areas to change coloration without losing established detail

How not to use it

• Do not shake or vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry
• Do not use with any non-acrylic media
