Liquitex Matte Medium 3.78L

Enhance your artistic process with Liquitex's wide range of acrylic mediums. Liquitex Fluid Mediums live up to their name by offering a fluid consistency that reduces the thickness of heavy paints and gels. These mediums have a self-leveling quality that eliminates visible brushstrokes. They are designed to modify acrylic paints in various ways, containing acrylic resins that enhance adhesion and durability.

One standout product is the Liquitex Matte Medium Fluid Painting Medium, which creates a matte, non-reflective finish when mixed with acrylic colors. This medium can be added to any acrylic paint to increase transparency, extend color, boost matte sheen, improve paint flow, and enhance flexibility and adhesion. Combining it with Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish produces a semi-gloss or satin effect – opaque when wet and translucent when dry.

There are multiple applications for Liquitex Fluid Mediums. They can be used as extenders with Soft Body Artist Color or Heavy Body Artist Color to increase volume, translucency, and viscosity. Additionally, they serve as fixatives by reducing glossiness on artwork when mixed with water and applied with an atomizer or airbrush. As a ground alternative to gesso, Liquitex Matte Medium offers excellent tooth and adhesion, allowing the support's color and texture to shine through.

For exterior murals on smooth surfaces, it is recommended to apply a coat of Matte Medium before gesso.

This lightweight, non-toxic medium is intermixable with Liquitex Professional Acrylic Paint Colors and Mediums, meeting ASTM D4236 standards for educational use.
