Questions & Answers

This can be used with oil paints that are water miscible?

If I were to email Gamblin directly about this I would ask- Your questions will be answered very promptly, and they will provide you with helpful technical information. It's possible that Gamblin paints are water soluble, so perhaps they can tell you for sure.

It is possible for this to be mixed with acrylic paint to make it thicker?

There is no way to mix acrylic paint with this product- Paints with oil base can be used with this. The answer to your question is YES! There are many products that do what you want! There are many different types of acrylic medium they can be shiny, matte, thin, or very thick. Golden and Liquitex are popular brands that sell acrylic mediums in many variety sizes.

Could this be a substitute for liquid white? If so, does it blend colors in the same manner as liquid white? Is there anything I can do for you?

Improves the drying time of cold wax and oil paintings.

Liquid white is a clear gel, but I have never used liquid white. Changing the color does not really change the When added to oil and cold wax medium, it speeds up the drying process.

When it comes to money, a little goes a long way
5/5

When it comes to cold wax or oil paint, this is an important additive. It will speed up the drying process. The product works very well and a little bit goes a long way. You will still have plenty of time to make corrections and revisions to your paintings. For those of you who want to save a little bit of time between layers, I recommend it.

I LOVE YOU
5/5

Any pigment can be stretched to near complete dilution with this stuff, and it will still retain brush strokes if that's desired, and it can also smooth them out to be undetectable if that's desired. Although I know they aren't trying to compete or have anything in common, I didn't find it convenient. It also has a little spirit in it, so it's paired with spirits. I will buy absolutely no Liquin from here on out! It takes some time for Liquin to dull. The stuff does not work. It is only a little glossy for me, but aside from that, I think it is a good.

I think I have gotten as close to real turps as I can
5/5

Back when I was a young adult, I developed an allergy to turpentine. Because of my bravado, I was seriously limited as an artist. I have found that this is the best way to add a bit of "tack" to your underpainting so that you can layer on top. I wish I could say it was my favorite, but it is the closest I have ever come to it.

The software is easy Having used galkyd gel for some time, I really like it
5/5

In my experience, it's easier to manage the liquid when it's pouring as opposed to pouring. As well as being lightweight, it is not as thick and heavy as a liquid. When this product runs out, I will continue to order it.

It's literally the best stuff I've ever heard
5/5

An essential requirement for anyone who paints with oil. I have tried everything, and this stuff is the best. It cuts drying times from days to.

If you are frustrated that your Galkyd/LICQUIN keeps drying up in the bottle This is the good stuff for you
5/5

You're the one who needs to read this. The answer is 'On the Spot' -- if you paint it I have a hollow air The medium won't run down your palette and is therefore good for art on location outside. The paint I use most often is this one since it allows me to visually measure and reapply pigments at the ratios I prefer. By the way, the items were shipped quickly, arrived in great condition without dent or scratch.

Advertising this more would be wise, as it really does work well for thickening and glazing
5/5

There is no smell to this clear gel. I found that it works well just for dipping the brush into for thinning paint, but it isn't as good as impasto and will go flat fairly quickly. The product dries evenly and does not change the color of the paint, which makes it stand out from the other products marketed as Impasto mediums. It has a nice even finish and dries completely in about a day instead of wax.

I highly recommend this medium for painting
5/5

As a paint medium, Galkyd has proved to be excellent for me. A nice consistency and quick drying time make it a good choice. Oils are usually what I use and I glaze a lot. When I have the gel too thick, I mix it with the Galkyd liquid. I don't care which way you do it,.
