gloss medium Printable version

Used as a non-removable final picture varnish for a glossy protective coat, or as a painting and glazing medium. It enhances color intensity, increases transparency and gloss, eases the flow of paint, and adds flexibility and adhesion to the paint film. Translucent when wet, and transparent when dry, this 100% acrylic polymer varnish is water-soluble when wet and can be thinned. It can be used as an extender, a fixative, a ground, or a varnish.
