Double your paint volume while preserving perfect opacity and color
Stretching expensive paint without dulling its impact becomes possible with this specialized acrylic medium. Ultra Matte Gel doubles your heavy body paint volume while maintaining both the original color strength and opacity, critical when you're running low on a custom-mixed shade mid-painting. Unlike standard mediums that create transparency as they extend, this formula preserves covering power, letting you maintain consistent opacity across large areas or multiple layers.
The gel matches heavy body viscosity precisely, so extended paint handles exactly like the original straight from the tube. Brush strokes, palette knife marks, and impasto techniques remain consistent whether you're working with pure paint or extended color. This consistency matters when building up surfaces or matching existing passages, no adjustment in application technique required.
That ultra-matte finish eliminates surface sheen completely, creating uniform light absorption across your painting. The effect proves particularly valuable for contemporary work where glossy surfaces would undermine the intended aesthetic, or when you need dead-flat color fields without reflective distraction. Mix directly into heavy body acrylics at ratios up to 1:1, extending coverage while maintaining the working properties and archival stability that matter for serious painting.
