Golden Mediums
for Acrylic

  • 236ml Glazing Liquid Gloss or Satin
    Acrylic Glazing Liquid (AGL) is a 100% Acrylic, water-based emulsion, developed to be used with waterborne paint systems for interior glazing applications. Acrylic Glazing Liquid can be used for a wide variety of techniques, which require longer open times, including: Wood Graining, Marbling, Trompe L'Oeil, Additive and Subtractive Techniques, Glazing

  • 236ml Defoamer for Fluid Acrylics
    Defoamer for Fluid Acrylics is a petroleum derived product that aids in decreasing foam production in fluid acrylic mediums or paint mixtures. Most useful for artists formulating their own paints. The defoamer level has already been maximized in Golden Acrylic paints, and any additional amount will result in surface defects (craters, orange peel, etc.) and can interfere with intercoat adhesion.

  • 236ml Defoamer for Heavy Body Acrylics
    Defoamer for Heavy Body Acrylics is a petroleum derived product that aids in decreasing foam production in heavy body paint and mediums. The defoamer level has already been maximized in Golden Acrylic paints, and any additional amount will result in surface defects (craters, orange peel, etc.) and can interfere with intercoat adhesion.

  • 236ml Matte Medium
    Matte Medium is a viscous, pourable acrylic medium useful for extending colors , increasing translucency and decreasing gloss. It is also useful as a translucent ground.

  • 236ml Fluid Matte Medium
    Fluid Matte Medium is a liquid, pourable acrylic medium useful for extending colors, increasing translucency and decreasing gloss. This product is particularly useful with GOLDEN Fluid Acrylics to decrease gloss without altering viscosity. It is also useful as a translucent ground.

  • 236ml GAC800
    Most useful as an additive for acrylic paints when pours/puddles are desired to dry with the same film thickness and smoothness as when wet. Most acrylics will craze, which is the formation of valleys that run through a pour/puddle nullifying the uniformity of the film. Such crazing is the result of shrinkage forces exerted during the drying process. GAC 800 stands alone in its resistance to such film discontinuity. Dries with good gloss and film flexibility, but with a slight "hazy" quality. Useful as a modifier when adhesion to chalky surfaces is desired.

  • 119ml MSA Varnish
    MSA (Mineral Spirit Acrylic) Varnish with UVLS (UltraViolet Light Stabilizers) is a Mineral Spirit Acrylic-borne resin system. MSA Varnish forms a tougher, less permeable film than waterborne acrylic emulsion varnishes. It reduces dirt penetration and surface marring, offering an extremely level film with less foam and fewer pinholes. Removable with turpentine after drying. Available in Gloss, Satin and Matte. Recommended for either interior or exterior use. For use on acrylics, oils, temperas, watercolors and various other media. Health Labeled (HL) Product. Not for use by children.

  • 236ml Polymer Medium
    A general purpose liquid medium useful for creating glazes, extending colors, enhancing gloss and translucency and increasing film integrity. Has a unique feel that is much more oil-like or resinous in nature and that promotes flow and leveling.

  • 119ml & 236ml Polymer Varnish
    Polymer Varnish with UVLS (UltraViolet Light Stabilizers) is a waterborne acrylic polymer varnish that dries to a protective, flexible, dust resistant surface over acrylic paint. Removable with ammonia. Available in Gloss, Satin and Matte. Health Labeled (HL) Product. Not for use by children. Recommended for interior use only.

  • 119ml Retarder
    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.

  • 236ml Silk Screen Fabric Gel
    Silk-Screen Fabric Gel is a water-borne system designed to blend with acrylic paints for silk-screen application onto cotton, 50/50 cotton/polyester blend fabrics, and other garments. This product gives paint a soft, pliable feel and when properly heat-set, provides excellent laundering stability. Silk-Screen Fabric Gel also increases working time and retards paint from drying in the screen.

  • 236ml Silk Screen Medium
    Silkscreen Medium is a water-borne system designed to blend with acrylic paints for silk-screen application onto paper, wood and other suitable fine art materials. This product is designed to increase working time and prevent paint from drying in the screen too quickly.

  • 236ml Universal Dispersant
    Universal Dispersant provides improved dispersion and stability for a variety of pigments and extenders in waterborne acrylic paints. Typically, pigments have an inherent repulsion to water, making them difficult to blend. Universal Dispersant contains surfactants which are capable of wetting and stabilizing pigment surfaces. This allows for ease of mixing and greater color development from pigments in waterborne systems.
