Control texture and reduce gloss while extending your paint with Liquitex BASICS Matte Gel Medium, 250 mL Tube. This thick, high-viscosity acrylic medium increases paint volume, improves flexibility, and adds body without changing color intensity. Ideal for impasto work, collage, and textural layering, it dries to a smooth, non-reflective matte finish that enhances brushstroke definition and surface contrast. When mixed with acrylic paint, it provides a thicker consistency and a subtle, professional look. Use it alone as a matte adhesive or texture medium for mixed-media applications. Non-yellowing and archival, Liquitex BASICS Matte Gel Medium is perfect for artists, students, and educators seeking versatile control, durable texture, and a professional matte surface for painting and craft projects.
Key Features
- Thickens Paint for Enhanced Texture: Liquitex BASICS Matte Gel Medium increases the viscosity of fluid or soft-body acrylic paints, allowing for more prominent brush and knife marks. This feature is ideal for artists looking to add texture and dimension t
- Reduces Gloss and Adds Matte Finish: When mixed with acrylic paints, this medium reduces their gloss, giving a matte finish that enhances color depth and transparency. This is particularly beneficial for artists seeking a non-reflective surface.
- Extends Drying Time for Better Blending: The medium slows down the drying time of acrylic paints, providing more time for blending and achieving smooth transitions in color. This is especially useful for detailed work and layering techniques.
- Versatile Adhesive for Collage Work: Liquitex BASICS Matte Gel Medium can be used as a strong adhesive for collage and mixed media projects. Its matte finish ensures that the glued elements blend seamlessly with the artwork.
- Water-Based and Non-Yellowing: Safe, durable, and easy to clean up.
- Trusted Liquitex quality: Made by Liquitex, experts in fine art materials for students and professionals.
