Bio-Based Medium - Gloss Gel

Pre-Order Today!

A planet-positive way to increase gloss, extend volume and thicken, while extending open time. Or use as a collaging adhesive.

Key Features

  • Increases surface gloss, color depth and transparency
  • Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability
  • Gives heavy body paint an oil-like color brilliance
  • Increases viscosity of soft body paints, giving a thicker consistency

How To Use

  • 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 Acrylic/Heavy Body Acrylic to extend volume and maintain viscosity
  • Mix into Soft Body or Acrylic Ink to extend volume and thicken

WHAT DOES BIO-BASED MEAN?

Let’s dive in. The resin base of a typical pro acrylic medium is made from 100% petrol-derived ingredients sourced from fossil fuels and other non-renewable substances. For Liquitex Bio-Based we’ve halved this, replacing ingredients with ones from renewable, biological sources. These come from living or once-living organisms like corn, soy, sugarcane and algae which can be regrown or replenished relatively quickly through natural or farming processes.

As well as the resin, every other ingredient that has a bio-based alternative has been replaced and we’ve avoided any components or pigments derived from animals. As more bio-based ingredients become available, we’ll incorporate them.
