Liquitex Gloss and Matte Mediums

Liquitex Gloss and Matte Mediums may be used to extend acrylic colors or as a fixative over artwork. The mediums produce a semi-gloss or satin medium when mixed together.

Gloss Medium - Liquitex Gloss Medium is the workhorse of the Liquitex Mediums range. Gloss Medium is an all-purpose medium that performs two functions. It can be used as a varnish and/or a fluid gloss medium. It improves adhesion of paint film and increases color depth, intensity, and gloss. It can also be used as a non-removable varnish to protect the surface and establish an even gloss sheen.

Matte Medium - Liquitex Matte Medium is a classic medium used to give fluidity to delicate brushwork or to act as a low sheen adhesive for collage. This medium has a creamy consistency and is great with opaque colors. Mix with Gloss Medium & Varnish to create a customized satin effect.
