Liquitex Satin Gel Medium can be used as a strong collaging adhesive, or to increase texture and extend volume with a satin finish. It increases viscosity of soft body paints, giving a thicker consistency, and gives heavier body paint an oil-like brilliance. This medium slows drying time and enhances appearance of brush strokes, as well as extends colour without affecting acrylic stability. It also maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality.
