Layer, adhere, and seal mixed media with specialty finishes that craze or age

Mixed-media collage demands adhesives that do more than stick, they need to integrate layers, create effects, and unify disparate elements. Tim Holtz Distress Collage Mediums handle all three roles across different aesthetic needs. The Matte Medium provides clean adhesion and sealing with a translucent finish that disappears into your work. Crazing Medium adds deliberate age and texture, drying with subtle surface cracks that suggest weathering and history. Vintage Medium contributes its own character, imparting a warm tint that pushes everything toward unified antiqued tones while maintaining semi-translucent coverage.

Each formula works as adhesive for paper ephemera, fabric, and found objects, then doubles as a protective topcoat once your composition is complete. The gel consistency spreads smoothly without excessive moisture that might buckle delicate papers, yet provides enough working time for positioning before it sets. Layer them strategically: seal background elements with Matte, add Crazing over specific areas for texture, finish with Vintage for overall cohesion. The sampler pack lets you test all three finishes in actual projects before committing to full-size jars of the formulas that best serve your aesthetic.
