{"product_id":"decoart-mediums","title":"Mediums","description":"\u003cp\u003eCraft acrylics perform differently than fine art formulations, they're designed for quick coverage rather than extended manipulation. These mediums bridge that gap, transforming Americana paints to match specific project demands without requiring you to switch paint systems entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extender and control mediums address the primary frustration with craft acrylics: they dry too fast for smooth blending or gradient work. Brush 'n Blend keeps paint workable during color transitions, while Control Medium slows drying without compromising body, essential when you need opacity but extra working time. Canvas Gel takes this further, fundamentally changing how the paint behaves to mimic oil paint characteristics with extended open time and smoother flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecialized formulations handle surface preparation and protection: Wood Sealer creates consistent absorption across raw wood, preventing blotchy paint application. Multi-Purpose Sealer works as both primer and protective finish for hard surfaces, with the added benefit of mixing directly into paint for weather-resistant outdoor projects. The three varnish finishes, gloss, satin, and matte, provide flexible, non-yellowing protection when applied in thin successive coats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThickening Medium adds body for dimensional techniques, Pearlizing Medium introduces luminous shimmer, Faux Glazing Medium creates translucent color for decorative finishing, and Fabric Painting Medium makes colors permanent and washable on textiles. Each 2-ounce bottle addresses a specific technical requirement, letting you adapt affordable craft acrylics to demanding applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DecoArt","offers":[{"title":"pearlizing medium \/ 2 oz.","offer_id":48100143464677,"sku":"24375","price":2.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"multi-purpose sealer \/ 2 oz.","offer_id":48100143497445,"sku":"25045","price":2.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"brush n' blend medium \/ 2 oz.","offer_id":48100143530213,"sku":"36774","price":2.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"faux glazing medium \/ 2 oz.","offer_id":48100143562981,"sku":"74439","price":2.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"fabric painting medium \/ 2 oz.","offer_id":48100143595749,"sku":"93710","price":2.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s24375.jpg?v=1769785476","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.com\/products\/decoart-mediums","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
