ESSENTIAL INFORMATION ABOUT USING ACRYLIC MEDIUMS
For best results, always test before using
Mix Liquitex Mediums into acrylic color to add flexibility, adhesion, and long-term stability
Liquitex mediums extend the volume, while most also increase the transparency of acrylic color
A thin film (1/16) of Liquitex medium may take between 1⁄2 hour to 24 hours to initially dry, while a thicker film (1/4) may take between 2-5 days to initially dry
The use of an air-mister and humidifier will slow the drying time of all Liquitex Mediums
Avoid any oily, oil painted, greasy or waxy surfaces
When painting on any hard or slick surface such as glass, metal, enamel or hardboard, sand surfaces prior to applying any medium, to improve adhesion
Vigorous brushwork over textured areas may cause bubbles to form within the paint film
Do not overwork during application. If mediums are brushed heavily during drying, it may cause clouding. Once the film is clouded and dry, it can not be clarified or removed. If an area is missed, allow the surface to dry and then cover with another coat of medium |
