{"product_id":"eco-house-damar-resin","title":"Damar Resin","description":"\u003cp\u003eDammar pine sap crystallizes into translucent amber chunks that dissolve in turpentine to create traditional painting mediums and varnishes. This natural resin brings depth and luminosity to oil paintings, dissolved in turpentine at varying ratios, it produces everything from glossy final varnishes to painting mediums that improve flow and increase transparency without yellowing like linseed oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEco-House sources this resin directly from Southeast Asian dammar pines, where collectors harvest the viscous sap and air-dry it into stable crystals. The resulting resin dissolves cleanly in turpentine, producing solutions from thin glazing mediums to protective varnishes depending on your ratio. Mixed into oil paint, dammar medium accelerates drying time while maintaining workability; applied as a final varnish, it unifies surface sheen and saturates colors with characteristic depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional painting techniques rely on dammar's unique properties: it remains removable for conservation work, doesn't darken significantly over time, and creates that coveted Old Master glow when used in glazing layers. Crush or dissolve the crystals as needed, controlling concentration for your specific application. This is the same resin used in historical painting methods, now available for contemporary artists working with time-tested materials.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eco-House","offers":[{"title":"2.5 oz.","offer_id":47981131170021,"sku":"22350","price":8.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 oz.","offer_id":47981131202789,"sku":"22351","price":20.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s22350_1faaefee-015a-4e1e-a1b4-42d15c39658c.jpg?v=1770401792","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.com\/products\/eco-house-damar-resin","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
