Liquitex BASICS Iridescent Medium, 250ml Tube

BASICS mediums and Varnishes are developed for students and artists who require dependable quality at an economical price. These mediums are designed to be mixed with acrylic paint, allowing users to adjust the way the paint works, feels, and looks. They can be used to add texture, modify paint flow, and alter the working properties of the color.

The inclusion of acrylic resin in these mediums helps maintain or even enhance the stability of the paint film, enabling users to incorporate them in any desired quantity. One of the key benefits of these mediums is their ability to provide a smooth, iridescent appearance and increase paint transparency.

By extending the color without affecting the acrylic stability, these mediums can thin out heavier body paints, allowing for more subtle color blends. The slower drying time facilitated by these mediums also contributes to the creation of more nuanced color combinations. Importantly, the mediums maintain the paint's adhesion, durability, and archival quality.

For optimal results, users can thin the mediums by diluting them with up to 30% distilled water. This flexibility enables artists and students to mix as much of the medium as they desire into the acrylic color, creating the precise iridescence and consistency they envision.

In summary, BASICS mediums and Varnishes are versatile products that cater to the needs of students and artists seeking dependable quality at an economical price point. These mediums offer a range of benefits, including enhanced paint texture, flow, and working properties, as well as the ability to maintain or improve the stability and archival quality of the paint film. The flexibility to adjust the mediums' consistency and iridescence through dilution further empowers users to achieve their desired artistic outcomes.
