{"product_id":"liquitex-iridescentpearlescent-medium","title":"Iridescent\/Pearlescent Medium","description":"\u003cp\u003ePearlescent shimmer transforms flat acrylic surfaces into something that catches and plays with light. This medium suspends fine mica particles in acrylic polymer, creating luminous effects that shift as viewing angles change. Mix it with any acrylic color to add dimensional shimmer while maintaining the paint's working properties, or apply it straight from the bottle as a final glaze over dried layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formulation does double duty beyond adding shimmer. It extends paint volume economically, increases transparency for glazing techniques, and slightly retards drying time, giving you extra minutes to blend or manipulate wet passages. Adding this medium to heavy body acrylics reduces viscosity without compromising adhesion or archival stability, so you can thin paint for smoother application while keeping the binder ratio sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSurface highlights become particularly effective when applied pure over contrasting colors. The pearlescent quality reads differently depending on what's underneath: subtle over light values, dramatic over darks. Available in 2 oz. bottles for testing effects and 8 oz. for production work where you've committed to the technique.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liquitex","offers":[{"title":"8 oz.","offer_id":47974045319397,"sku":"31816","price":15.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s31816.jpg?v=1770299741","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/liquitex-iridescentpearlescent-medium","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
