Prepare your colour for smooth, wet-look, craze-free pours by lowering viscosity and increasing flexibility. What it does: Gives even poured puddles and acrylic skins. Results in a smooth surface, with no crazing, cracking or bubbles. Dries to a high gloss, wet-look finish. Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow. Extends your colour further without affecting acrylic stability. Maintains colour opacity. Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality. How to use it: Fully intermixable with all liquitex products. For best pours, start with with a tablespoon of soft body colour to a cup of pouring medium (around 5% colour to 95% medium) and adapt to suit your technique. To use with acrylic ink or heavy body acrylic, adjust ratio to get your desired consistency. Stir gently to avoid creating foam - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear. Use as a regular fluid medium extender - mix as much as you like into acrylic colour to create the volume and viscosity you want. Crazing and cracking can occur when the flow heights are very uneven so ensure your poured surface is level when drying. To achieve a matte-look pour, a final application of matte spray varnish over a dry pouring medium/soft body pour will give a smoother, more fluid result than using a matte paint or medium. How not to use it: Do not shake or vigorously over-stir as this can impact the smooth appearance when dry. Do not use with any non-acrylic media.
