Liquitex Fluid Mediums

Perform much in the way that their name implies, they are fluid in nature and reduce viscosity of heavier paints and gels. They tend to self-level and do not retain brushstrokes. Liquitex Fluid Mediums modify acrylic paints in a variety of ways and contain acrylic resins to maintain or enhance adhesion and durability.

• Dries to a non-tacky, hard, flexible surface that is resistant to dirt retention.

• Will not crack as surface expands and contracts during temperature and humidity changes.
• Applicable for any surface (flexible and inflexible) including canvas, paper, wood, Plexiglas, etc.

Liquitex Matte Medium
