Golden Gel Mediums and Molding Pastes offer artists many ways to build texture. They range in consistency from pourable to moldable with varying degrees of sheen and transparency. Use them to create glazes, extend paints, build texture, and change finishes. Many are excellent glues for collage work.
Even though acrylic colors are offered in various consistencies and finishes, the use of gels and molding pastes in conjunction with such colors will broaden the working properties and expand on the possible results.
Gels can be thought of as colorless paints, since they are composed of similar polymers as the acrylic paints. They may be considered the “glue” or binder that dry to form continuous, durable films. They are made of 100% acrylic polymers, which have proven to have excellent flexibility and chemical, water and ultraviolet radiation resistance.
Golden Mediums offer artists infinite control of changing acrylic colors. Use mediums to control transparency, viscosity and surface sheen.
