Liquitex Acrylic Mediums

In addition to the widest array of Professional and Student colors, Liquitex offers the broadest possible range of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at every stage of the painting process. We understand that mediums are often a difficult concept to grasp until you actually dive into them, so we’ve tried to simplify usage by classifying products in three distinct categories: Prep, Paint, and Finish.

Created in the lab, these 15 mediums cover all bases. Want to add iridescence? Get a viscous texture? Use an airbrush? Pour? Or paint on fabric?

Customers are satisfied with the quality of the paint. They mention that it has a nice consistency, and the material sprayed and finished perfectly. The paint lasted all day without cracking, and it's a great binder for painting on cloth. The iridescent medium is a good product for adding something special, and is flexible and doesn't flake or peel with regular wear. It helps the paint spread smoothly and evenly onto the canvas, and doesn’t bead up off the tip of the brush.

Exactly what I needed
I didn’t realize but to buy fabric paint it only comes in like 16 packs or 24 packs I couldn’t find anywhere where they just had a large individual container of white fabric paint. I contacted one of the high-end fabric paint and paint manufacturers, and they said, the only way you could get it again was to buy, the whole set or get this type of liquid medium. it was exactly what I needed. I already had acrylic white paint I just didn’t have acrylic white fabric paint so this mixture you basically just mix it up one in one mixture so the same amount of paint and this medium and it is now fabric paint I haven’t had any peeling, it was exactly like the fabric paint that I used that came in the 24 pack so if you find yourself in the same situation as me trying to find a larger amount of white paint because obviously you use more white and more black than you would most colors this is how you would do it and I would recommend getting this liquid tax

Reviewed in Canada on September 10, 2023
I used this to add to acrylic paint used for two hats that I painted for my brother’s birthday! It made the paint a smoother texture that didn’t leak through to the other side. I used an iron on low setting and cheesecloth, to cover the paint to make it waterproof! So far, no running paint in the rain reported!
