Liquitex - Slow-Dri Blending Mediums
Slow-Dri Blending Mediums
Work wet-into-wet techniques with acrylics that stay open 40% longer
Acrylic's rapid drying becomes an asset when building layers quickly, but sometimes you need working time to blend transitions or refine passages. Slow-Dri Blending Medium extends your window by up to 40%, giving you the control to work wet-into-wet without fighting the clock. The medium improves paint flow while intensifying color depth, pigments maintain their strength as transparency increases, creating richer glazes and more luminous blends.
Translucent when wet, the medium dries completely transparent without yellowing or compromising flexibility. Enhanced adhesion strengthens the paint film, particularly valuable when working on non-porous surfaces or building complex layers. Mix it directly into your colors or brush it onto the surface first to create a receptive working area.
The formula maintains acrylic's essential characteristics, water resistance once cured, permanent adhesion, archival stability, while giving you breathing room to develop subtle gradations and atmospheric effects. Portrait painters use it for skin tone transitions; landscape artists rely on it for sky work and atmospheric perspective. You get extended blending time without sacrificing the properties that make acrylics reliable.
