Liquitex® Matte Super Heavy Gel

Reduce shine, extend volume and dramatically thicken, while extending open time – or use as a strong collaging adhesive. Dramatically increases viscosity to create a stiff, oil paint-like consistency that holds high peaks and sculptural shape. Reduces surface gloss, increases color depth and transparency. Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability. Slows drying time and gives minimal shrinkage. Acts as a heavy-duty collaging adhesive. Mix as much as you like into acrylic color to create the viscosity and transparency you want – the more you add, the more transparent your color will become. Can be thinned by diluting with up to 25% water – distilled water will give best results. Mix into Heavy Body Acrylic to extend volume and maintain viscosity. Mix into Soft Body or Acrylic Ink to extend volume and thicken. This is semi-opaque when wet, transparent when dry – when used very thickly it may dry semi-opaque.Prep. Paint. Finish.
