Hey painters! 8 New Liquitex Acrylic Mediums are going to be released this May. I’m attending the 2021 Creativation+ / Art Materials World trade show this week and I’ll be sharing the latest products, news, and launches over the next several MacKendrew Finds posts.
New Liquitex Acrylic Mediums
First up is 8 new additions to the Liquitex Acrylic Mediums line-up: Masking Fluid, Satin Medium, Satin Gel, Silkscreen Medium, Gold Metallic Medium, Silver Metallic Medium, Glass Medium, and Crackle Paste. The new mediums are “designed to alter the texture, sheen, and behavior of your color.”
Liquitex Masking Fluid
“A colorless, latex based liquid to mask areas of work with fluid applications of acrylic color and washes. The perfect medium to block off areas of a painting and let the surface show through. Even when painted over with a mix of Soft Body Acrylic, Gloss Medium and Varnish, the Masking Fluid will still be easily removed.”
Liquitex Satin Medium
“Thin paint and extend volume with a satin finish or use as a collaging adhesive. Though shine-through is less transparent than glazing medium, Satin Medium can be used for glazing, creating a beautiful satin finish and color effects.”
Liquitex Satin Gel
“Increase texture and extend volume with a satin finish or use as a strong collaging adhesive. You can mix Soft Body Acrylic with Satin Gel to create more volume with a beautiful satin finish.”
Liquitex Silkscreen Medium
“Mix this slow-drying medium with acrylic paint to make colors suitable for screen printing.”
Liquitex Gold Metallic Medium
“Give paint a metallic gold effect or use on its own to add gold surface highlights.”
Liquitex Silver Metallic Medium
“Give paint a metallic silver effect or use on its own to add silver surface highlights.”
Liquitex Glass Medium
“Mix with color to adhere paint on slick non-porous materials like glass. Dries to a high gloss finish and when heat set, creates a scratch resistant surface.”
Liquitex Crackle Paste
“Use on its own or mix with color to create a structurally stable crackle effect on rigid surfaces.”
