Liquitex Pouring Medium 946 ml

Prepare your colour for smooth, wet-look, craze-free pours by lowering viscosity and increasing flexibility.

Use with:

  • Acrylic paints and mediums

Use on:

  • All acrylic-friendly surfaces

Techniques:

  • Pours and puddles
  • Acrylic skins
  • Flow painting

Character:

  • Lightfast and archival
  • Permanent
  • Non-yellowing
  • Flexible and non-cracking
  • Water-resistant when dry
  • Intermixable with all Liquitex materials

What it does:

  • Gives even poured puddles and acrylic skins
  • Results in a smooth surface, with no crazing, cracking or bubbles
  • Dries to a high gloss, wet-look finish
  • Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
  • Extends your colour further without affecting acrylic stability
  • Maintains colour opacity
  • Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality

How to use it:

  • Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
  • For best pours, start with with a tablespoon of Soft Body colour to a cup of Pouring Medium (around 5% colour to 95% medium) and adapt to suit your technique
  • To use with Acrylic Ink or Heavy Body Acrylic, adjust ratio to get your desired consistency
  • Stir gently to avoid creating foam - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
  • Use as a regular fluid medium extender - mix as much as you like into acrylic colour to create the volume and viscosity you want
  • Crazing and cracking can occur when the flow heights are very uneven so ensure your poured surface is level when drying
  • To achieve a matte-look pour, a final application of Matte Spray Varnish over a dry Pouring Medium/Soft Body pour will give a smoother, more fluid result than using a matte paint or medium 

How not to use it:

  • Do not shake or vigorously over-stir as this can impact the smooth appearance when dry
  • Do not use with any non-acrylic media
