          Description
          A planet-positive way to give your paint a finish, while thinning and extending its volume. Liquitex Bio-Based Medium can also be used as a collaging adhesive and fixative.

          Characteristics:
          • Increases colour depth and transparency
          • Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
          • Extends colour further without affecting acrylic stability
          • Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality

          What does bio-based mean?
          The resin base of a typical pro acrylic paint is made from 100% petrol-derived ingredients sourced from fossil fuels and other non-renewable substances. For bio-based products, Liquitex halved this, replacing ingredients with ones from renewable, biological sources. These come from living or once-living organisms like corn, soy, sugarcane and algae which can be regrown or replenished relatively quickly through natural or farming processes.

          At Liquitex, every ingredient that has a bio-based alternative has been replaced and they’ve avoided any components or pigments derived from animals. As more bio-based ingredients become available, they’ll incorporate them.
