Galkyd Lite is different from regular Galkyd painting medium because it is made from an alkyd resin that has a lower viscosity. The viscosity of Galkyd Lite is very similar to that of a traditional damar/refined linseed oil/turpentine painting medium. Galkyd Lite oil painting medium is also ready to use without mixing with other oil painting products. Because of its lower viscosity, Galkyd Lite will leave brush strokes in thicker layers of oil paint. Glazes made with Galkyd Lite look slightly less glossy than those made with traditional mediums or regular Galkyd. Like Galkyd, Galkyd Lite is formulated to thin oil paints and maintain strong flexible paint films. Besides painters who prefer a lighter painting medium, landscape painters and others who enjoy painting outdoors will appreciate the longer working time of Galkyd Lite (approximately three hours). Thin layers will be ready to paint over within 24 hours. Thins with odorless mineral spirits. Galkyd Lite is available from Cheap Joe’s, your oil paint source in 2oz., 8oz., and 16oz. sizes. For something a little different, make sure to add this medium in particular to your oil paint art supply!
