Acrylic Mediums

We supply a vast range of Mediums, Varnishes, Primers and Texture Mediums. With the help of mediums, acrylics may be used in a fluid, gestural manner (much like water colour) or in heavier applications (as with oils) or they can be shaped and carved, using our selection of painting knives and artists brushes.

Varnishes are final coatings which protect finished pictures from the build-up of dirt and grease. In addition, varnishes may be intermixed for a variety of finishes.

Acrylic Textures can be divided into three groups; Structure Gels, Modelling Pastes and Texture Gels.

Structure Gels are made from acrylic resin and are formulated for greater body and structure than the more fluid Gloss and Matt Mediums.  They enable you to create surface texture and high peak retention of brush marks.

Modelling Pastes are the heaviest of all mediums and are suited for carving and sanding and are ideal for building extreme textures.

Texture Gels offer a range of aggregate textures within heavier acrylic gels. These are suitable for any application in which highly unique surface textures are desired.
