Liquitex - Gloss Super Heavy Gel Medium
Gloss Super Heavy Gel Medium
Transform thin acrylics into thick, oil-like paint with stiff texture
Thick paint behaves differently than fluid paint; it holds peaks, creates dimension, and responds to palette knives with satisfying resistance. This extremely dense gel transforms standard acrylics into sculptural material with the stiff, heavy body feel of oil paint while maintaining acrylic's fast drying time. The formula extends your paint significantly while amplifying both brilliance and transparency, colors glow rather than muddy as you add volume.
Surface drag matters for impasto techniques and textural work. This gel provides substantial resistance under the knife or brush, holding crisp peaks and dimensional marks that stay exactly where you place them. The gel dries clear to translucent depending on application thickness, with minimal shrinkage that preserves your textural intent from wet to dry. Flexibility prevents cracking even in heavy applications, while water resistance protects finished work.
Extended open time keeps paint workable longer than standard gels, useful when building complex surfaces or blending thick applications. Non-yellowing formula maintains color integrity across whites and pale tones. Available in 8, 16, and 32 ounce jars for projects ranging from detailed dimensional accents to large-scale textural abstracts.
