Liquitex Slow-Dri Blending Medium

Liquitex Slow-Dri Blending Medium

Slow drying time by 40% and increase transparency, so you can work your paint for longer.

 What it does

• Extends the open time of your color/medium by 40% so it is blendable and workable for longer
• Increases transparency
• Gives softer edges and great color blends
• Extends your color further without affecting acrylic stability
• Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
• Increases surface gloss, color depth and transparency
• Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
• Ideal for dry and hot climates

How to use it

• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
• Can be thined by diluting with up to 25% water - distilled water will give best results
• Mix as much as you like into acrylic color/medium to create the viscosity and transparency you want - the more you add, the thinner and more transparent your color will become
• Stir gently to avoid creating foam - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
• If you're working over a long period of time, mix into color on the palette to keep it fresh and skin-free for longer
• This is semi-opaque when wet, transparent when dry
• To fix pastel, graphite or chalk, mix 1 part medium to 1 part distilled water and apply with an atomizer or airbrush

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
