{"product_id":"grumbacher-copal-painting-medium","title":"Copal Painting Medium","description":"\u003cp\u003eCopal resin transforms oil paint behavior without the extended wait times that plague humid studio conditions. This medium accelerates drying while maintaining proper film formation, paint cures hard and glossy rather than staying tacky for days when moisture hangs in the air. The resin improves flow characteristics immediately; you'll notice paint gliding more smoothly from brush to canvas, especially helpful when working wet-into-wet passages that need to blend seamlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd Grumbacher Copal directly to paint on your palette, adjusting the ratio based on desired fluidity and working time. More medium means faster drying and increased gloss, less preserves longer open time with moderate sheen. The resulting paint film develops exceptional hardness as it cures, creating durable layers that resist damage during subsequent glazing or varnishing. Particularly valuable for artists in coastal or humid climates where standard oils often remain frustratingly soft, this medium delivers reliable drying regardless of atmospheric conditions. Use it to maintain consistent working properties across seasons or to accelerate completion of commissioned work with actual deadlines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grumbacher","offers":[{"title":"8 oz.","offer_id":47979814322405,"sku":"62467","price":27.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2.5 oz.","offer_id":47979814355173,"sku":"73285","price":12.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s73285.jpg?v=1770374654","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/grumbacher-copal-painting-medium","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
