Pebeo Studio Acrylic Pouring Medium is ideal for creating clean and lacquered pouring techniques.

Glossy, transparent and non-yellowing, this allows your paint to pour smoothly onto your surface in even, seamless sheets and puddles, without cracks or bubbles.

Works in the same way as the more fluid Slow Medium (extending wet-in-wet blending time), but with its more paint like consistency it can be used for spreading and diluting paint without making it too thin or runny.This product is part of the Atelier Interactive range.The Atelier interactive range can be used with traditional acrylic medium (or water) for overpainting or layering, or alternatively by itself it can allow you to use wet-in-wet painting techniques, has a longer working time and blend in a way similar to how you’d use oil paints.You can combine the Atelier Interactive range and Atelier Traditional range to create unique and interesting effects within the same painting.

The Vallejo Pouring Medium is a fluid self-levelling medium designed for use with fluid acrylics and acrylic inks. It dries to a transparent, flexible and glossy finish which will not yellow and which is extremely durable. It can be tinted or used as a vehicle for dripping or pouring acrylic colours. Once dry it is water-resistant.This is a 500ml bottle of Vallejo Pouring Medium.

Schmincke Pouring Medium is a fluid acrylic-medium that is used for creating acrylic pour paintings. It is especially good for producing cell-like effects. Acrylic pouring involves pre-mixing fluid acrylics and acrylic ink with a pouring medium and then pouring it over a panel or canvas to create gorgeous abstract patterns or landscapes.

Achieving a 'cell' effect is popular with pour painters and can be achieved by using just a pouring medium (and perhaps a splash of water), but most pouring mediums bind too well to the paints. Silicone is the key to creating dynamic cells in your paintings and this medium helps you achieve that - without the cracking that is usually associated with silicone and pour painting. Silicone to be the best type of lubricant for acrylic pouring because it’s predictable, neutral, and durable. It’s easy to manipulate, unlike water. It doesn’t affect colour or turn rancid like many natural oils.

This pouring medium has optimised flow properties and can be mixed in any ratio with acrylic colours up to 45% acrylic colour, allowing you to vary the speed of flow and experiment with your work. Additionally, you can use water as a thinner with it. It dries to a gloss finish and is then waterproof. The medium itself reduces crazing dramatically and dries clear with a non-yellowing, tack-free surface. The acrylic-medium mixes can be poured in layers after each layer has dried. The surface you pour onto should be grease-free, slightly absorbent and stable.

Suitable for use with Tri-Art Silicone Oil Cell Flow Medium. or Vallejo Silicone Oil Cell Flow Medium.

A low viscosity medium used for thin fast drying layering techniques. It can also be used on its own to seal and reinforce a paint layer in preparation for scratch back, glazing or varnishing. It also returns the Atelier Interactive to a more conventional acrylic.This product is part of the Atelier Interactive range.The Atelier interactive range can be used with traditional acrylic medium (or water) for overpainting or layering, or alternatively by itself it can allow you to use wet-in-wet painting techniques, has a longer working time and blend in a way similar to how you’d use oil paints.You can combine the Atelier Interactive range and Atelier Traditional range to create unique and interesting effects within the same painting.

A specifically designed sprayer which produces a controlled fine mist intended to keep Atelier Interactive workable for as long as desired. Ideal for wet-in-wet techniques.When to spray?As the paint starts to dry you will feel your brush begin to drag. This means it is time to spray if you want to keep the paint wet and workable.How to spray?Hold the bottle back about 30cm from the painting and lightly mist the area you want to keep wet. The painting surface should not be physically disturbed by the water droplets so if you are getting large droplets or big dribbles then you are spraying too much.What if the paint won’t re-wet?After the paint has just dried it can still be reactivated with water but after about an hour, depending on the climate and paint thickness, you will need to use Unlocking Formula in your water sprayer to re-wet the paint.Note: For larger works you may need to upsize your sprayer in which case be sure to get one that delivers a fine mist of water and not a jet of heavy droplets.This product is part of the Atelier Interactive range.The Atelier interactive range can be used with traditional acrylic medium (or water) for overpainting or layering, or alternatively by itself it can allow you to use wet-in-wet painting techniques, has a longer working time and blend in a way similar to how you’d use oil paints.You can combine the Atelier Interactive range and Atelier Traditional range to create unique and interesting effects within the same painting.

A paint additive designed to slow down the drying time of acrylic paint. It may be added to other Atelier mediums to increase open time. Note: Retarder does not contain a binding agent so to avoid creating an unstable mixture, it is recommended to mix no more than 10% with acrylic paints.pdf=MSDS-Atelier-Retarder-Medium.pdf Safety Data Sheet

A very thick and textural paste made from calcite grit. It has the same flexibility as the paint and is used to create strong textural interest at any stage in a painting's process. Dries white and can be mixed with the paint to produce a coloured ground, or painted over once dry.

A thick, fast drying, waterbased acrylic gel, designed to exaggerate structure and sharpen textural edges of the paint - great for Impasto. It can be used as a very strong adhesive for bonding heavy objects. Can be mixed with the paint, overpainted once dry, or applied on top of a paint layer for a transparent textural effect.

Ateliers Universal Medium is a medium and varnish rolled into one.How To Use As a MediumThere are too many mediums on offer for use with acrylics. This medium does nearly all of the techniques that you could need if you are painting in fast quick layers. However, if you want heavy impasto you will still need to use Heavy Gel or Moulding Paste.Decant some of the concentrate into a small container that you can dip your brush into.You will like the feel of the paint when the medium is added to it and you will notice that it allows you to blend and feather edges very effectively because the medium is not sticky on the brush.Small additions to thick paint will loosen the consistency while more medium creates a very attractive glazing or layering mixture which can be over painted when touch dry.How To Use As A VarnishSolvent based varnish has a strong smell because of the turps, but usually looks better than a water based one and is easy to apply.The Atelier Interactive Universal Medium/Varnish when used as a water based varnish is comparable to solvent varnish. It is very easy to apply. It gives the colour saturation and enhancement of a good solvent based varnish. By adding water to the concentrate different levels of sheen can be created between low sheen and high gloss.Artists should experiment with color swatches to decide on the finishes that they prefer.Apply a seal coat one part varnish two parts water. This allows the varnish to penetrate and seal the paint layer so that a more concentrated varnish can be spread easily when the seal coat is dry.If you want a high gloss finish the full concentrate can be used over the seal coat and two or more coats can be used to exaggerate gloss as required.For a subtle finish you might decide that the seal coat is all that you need or you might apply another diluted coat to create a satin finish which is more attractive than a satin varnish containing a flatting agent.How To ApplyPlace your painting in a sloping position so that you can pick up the runs or dribbles. You can work back and forth while the varnish is wet because it does not catch on the brush.This product is part of the Atelier Traditional range.The Atelier Traditional painting range allows you to use traditional acrylic techniques that have been evolving since 1965. The Atelier Traditional mediums are made of an acrylic binder that dries quickly and forms a tough water resistant skin.You can combine the Atelier Interactive range and Atelier Traditional range to create unique and interesting effects within the same painting.

Formerly known as Satin Medium & Varnish this water-based non toxic varnish, can either be used as a medium to change the sheen level - or to provide a non-tacky protective varnish coating.This product is part of the Atelier Traditional range.The Atelier Traditional painting range allows you to use traditional acrylic techniques that have been evolving since 1965.

Golden Retarder is an additive used to increase the open (drying) time of acrylic paints. Useful for "wet in wet" techniques and reducing skinning on the palette.

Golden High Flow Medium (formerly Airbrush Transparent Extender) is a liquid medium useful for extending colors, decreasing gloss, and increasing film integrity. Useful for blending with Golden Fluid Acrylics to decrease the gloss, without increasing viscosity.

We generally do not recommend using Airbrush Medium with the pre-made Golden Airbrush Colors because this creates a very slow-drying, potentially weaker paint film, with poor frisket performance (color sticking to frisket or masking films) until the film sufficiently dries. When frisketing is of critical importance, use Golden High Flow Medium to dilute the airbrush colors or other acrylics.

High Flow Medium is recommended whenever a mixture requires airbrush medium additions greater than 2 parts medium to 1 part paint. This will yield a paint system that dries quickly, ‘friskets’ well, and has excellent sprayability.

Additional Tips:
Paint on any non-oily surface. Remove oils, grease, or other contaminants before application. Non-absorbent surfaces should be abraded for increased adhesion. Keep tools wet during use. Do not allow product to dry in airbrush. Clean tools with soap and water. Clean airbrush with water, ammonia/water, alcohol or miscellaneous household cleaners (however, consider effect of cleaner on airbrush parts, such as rings and seals).

Golden Super Matte Medium is a pourable medium useful for reducing gloss. Because of its high level of matteing agents, you will only need to add a tiny amount to affect the sheen of your paint without altering the viscosity or strength of color. Super Matte Medium should always be blended with other acrylic paints or mediums as this product is not intended to be used by itself.
