{"product_id":"liquitex-acrylic-gloss-heavy-gel-medium","title":"Acrylic Gloss Heavy Gel Medium","description":"\u003cp\u003eThick paint demands a medium that can match its body without compromising color intensity. Liquitex Gloss Heavy Gel extends acrylics into oil-like consistency, dense, buttery, and workable enough for genuine impasto techniques where the paint holds knife marks and dimensional texture. The extra heavy formulation increases viscosity dramatically while maintaining transparency, so your colors stay brilliant rather than chalky or diluted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis gel keeps paint open longer than standard mediums, giving you time to work edges and blend transitions before the fast-drying nature of acrylics takes over. The extended working time matters when building thick passages that need manipulation or when creating smooth gradations in heavy applications. As a binder, it locks pigments and additives, sand, pumice, crushed stone, into stable matrices for textured surfaces that won't crack or separate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMix it directly into paint for controlled thickness, or apply it straight from the jar as an underlayer for dimensional glazing techniques. Available in 8 oz. and 16 oz. jars. The gloss finish intensifies color saturation, making it particularly effective for bold, sculptural painting where both texture and color vibrancy matter equally.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liquitex","offers":[{"title":"16 oz.","offer_id":47978828202213,"sku":"51015","price":25.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 oz.","offer_id":47978828234981,"sku":"77603","price":15.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s51015.jpg?v=1761678802","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/liquitex-acrylic-gloss-heavy-gel-medium","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
