What it does
Enhances blending and workability of acrylics on textiles and unprimed canvas
Improves adhesion and color penetration
Improves flexibility and reduces dry paint stiffness
Controls color bleeding
Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
Gives a consistently even, smooth application
Improves wet-on-wet blending
Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability
Doesn't require heat setting
Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
Can be machine or hand-washed once dry
How to use it
Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
For best results mix in a 1:1 ratio with Soft Body Acrylic, add more if using Heavy Body to get your desired consistency
For watercolor effects use 5 parts medium to 1 part Soft Body
Stir gently to avoid creating foam - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
Paint on with brush, roller etc, using a thin layer to avoid cracking
Can be added directly to textile when paint is still wet to blend color
No need to iron to set
How not to use it
Do not shake or vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry
Do not use with any non-acrylic media
The thicker you apply it, the less flexible it becomes
