Golden Fluid Acrylics are instantly brushable with zero modification. They also offer fantastic pigmentation and coverage. Those two features—tinting strength and fluidity—are not simple to combine, as any experienced painter can tell you. That's because diluting thicker colors decreases their saturation and opacity.

Golden created Fluid Acrylics in response to artists who wanted a low-viscosity paint without compromising on color. With these easy-to-apply, highly versatile colors, artists can make their concepts into finished pieces at warp speed. Compared with heavy body paints, Fluid Acrylics have a faster prep time, a faster application process, more direct mixing, and a shorter wait time between layers.

The range of Golden Fluid colors is just as impressive as their working properties. There's a nice balance between opaque colors (with impressive coverage for such a free-flowing paint) and luminous transparent colors. Several recent changes to the lineup have improved the color palette and the overall permanence of Fluid Acrylics.

All colors in the Fluid Acrylics range offer very good lightfastness, with most colors rated excellent. They form a highly stable surface and are suitable for long-term display.

This new Intro Set of 6 features a balanced selection of colors in 1 oz (30 mL) bottles. The colors included are benzimidazolone yellow medium, naphthol red light, ultramarine blue, permanent green light, carbon black and titanium white.
