Liquitex Masking Fluid Medium is a colourless, latex-based liquid that allows you to mask off areas of work and protect them from colour penetration. It peels off once the colour dries to reveal a clean surface underneath—leaving no trace or strain. This medium can be used with fluid applications of acrylic colour and washes. Ideal for blocking off areas of a painting and letting the surface show through.
