Liquitex Black Lava | Acrylic Medium | 237ml

  • $45.00

What it does

  • Tiny flat black acrylic polymer hexagons add dimension and texture to this clear 100% acrylic polymer gel
  • Dries to a ground black lava texture
  • Highly flexible and adhesive
  • Will not chip or crack on canvas
  • Can be used on its own, mixed with color or overpainted with acrylics once dry
  • Apply thickly to create dramatic 3D effects, or finely to give surface highlights and dimension
  • Maintains color adhesion, durability and archival quality

How to use it

  • Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
  • Apply with knife or brush
  • Can be thinned with a small amount of distilled water if required
  • Mix with different consistencies and ratios of acrylic color/medium to create custom texture
  • Start by adding very small amounts of color and build up as needed
  • For maximum dimension, mix with transparent/semi opaque colors
  • For dramatic glittery effects and highlights, mix with metallic color or apply 'neat' over dried paint
  • Mix with Gloss Medium to create a textured glaze
  • Overpaint when dry with transparent/semi opaque acrylics for different effects
  • Can be mixed with acrylic-compatible powdered pigments

How not to use it

  • If varnishing, don't be too vigorous as this can cause clouding or foaming - spray varnish will give best results
  • Do not use with any non-acrylic compatible media
