Golden Acryl Med 8 Oz Glaze Liquid Satin

I purchased this for use as a base to keep alcohol markers from bleeding through pages in adult coloring books. I found it very easy to use and put two thin coats just to be sure it was well protected. i was a little skeptical, but also very pleased that it worked great-- No bleed-through. Just know that it does cause the paper to curl a little. I weighted it overnight after it dried which helped with the curling, but it still curled a little along the edges. It worked great for markers, so I tried gel pens and colored pencils on the same page. The gel pens sit on top of the paper instead of being absorbed which leaves a shiny appearance on the page and resulted in a longer drying time. The colored pencils worked fine, although it did produce a grainy texture with the pencils. It still looks good, especially with the base coat of the alcohol markers. It's a good product, goes on easily and evenly, dries quickly, and produces the dersired effect. I'll keep in on hand from now on.

I have been searching for so many years--- I have a serious neuro-immune disease (ME/CFS) and it causes me to have multiple chemical sensitivity, to an extreme degree. I love acrylics (especially Golden, they are the BEST) but I have always wanted to make paintings that look like oil paints. I have even tried the water soluble oil paints. and I fainted from the odors. Crushing, because I saved up a long time for a whole collection of the oils. So, I tried everyyyy acrylic medium I could find, to give the buttery smoothness of oils. The closest thing that I found was the slow-dry blending medium. (Not the slow-dry retarder, as the retarder is very limited on ratio of medium to paints.) But now, this is better! I am telling you, this is THE BEST additive / medium I have found, after so many years of searching! It sincerely transforms golden acrylics (especially open acrylics) into oil-like paints. The behavior of oils with the safety on acrylics!!! LOOOOOOVE!!!! ... THANK YOU, GOLDEN, for making such high quality products!!!

Works great with acrylic paint! Definitely a need for any artist who paints. Easy to use and blendability is fine. Paint adheres and dries normal. I would definately buy again when mine runs out.

I use this with every painting session. My acrylic paints dry so quickly. Great quality. Texture is silky and smooth.Good value. Going to invest in a stay wet pallet also.

I recently purchased the Golden Acryl Med 8 Oz Glaze Liquid Satin and I’m thrilled with its performance. It’s incredibly easy to use and does a fantastic job when layering paint to achieve shadows and depth. The glaze blends well and extends the working time of my acrylic paints, preventing them from drying too quickly. Additionally, I love the finish it gives my paintings. I wish I had it to use on the previous portrait I did; it would have come out so much better. It’s a great product and I highly recommend it. The only draw back is the cost.

I use this to thin acrylic paint paint so it goes on smoother. It has a satiny look so it gives a nice texture.

I love the viscosity of the fluid. Works great for my paintings when glazing color on color.

Great for price but i have not used it yet
