LiquitexProfessional Fluid Medium, 237ml (8-oz), Slow-Dri Blending

Extends drying time with acrylics. Nice.

It makes the paint super easy to blend while still helping the paint to remain opaque and does a wonderful job at thinning and making the paint easier to move around. If you use too much, of course its going to take a little bit longer to dry than without it but it doesn't cause any problems for me. I love that it also keeps the original texture of the paint instead of making it overly glossy or matte like some other extenders I've used have done.

I bought a few mediums, mod podge, and varnishes. Haven’t used any of that stuff before. My favorite product is the slow dry medium for painting, and finish with matte spray coat (rustoleum brand).The medium makes the paint flow a lot better and you can keep working with it longer before it dries. It’s similar to painting with oil, without the horrible mess.My niece loves it too. We use it every time we paint now.I also tried the high gloss medium but if you aren’t consistent in the amount you use, the gloss is uneven. Uneven gloss looks bad. I’d rather just use gloss coat at the end, so i’m not sure what the point of that stuff is.I haven’t tried the other types of mediums yet.

This is the standard blending medium, a great product for acrylic painting. The issue is that the bottle cap was either loose when it was packed or it loosened during shipping. 1/4 of the contents was in the plastic shipping bag. I'm just calling attention to it so maybe someone who cares will be a little more careful.

The product arrived ahead of schedule. The product was exactly as described. The high side is, there are all kinds of products in the world promising to do the same as this product. Rule of thumb, find one product line you enjoy and stay with it for the duration of your project. The less than glossy side of the product is, the company is marginally responsive to artist questions. The company tends to put a lot of stock in 'watch' our video. This is a huge boring. The art store employees tend to learn and come to know products and I prefer the human to human experience. Maybe I'm just not up to talking to a robot, whereby the company who has a live voice and knowledge will get my business every time. Right?

This is a hard product to find. I needed it for some glass painting that I wanted to do. I was painting on some glassware that I could cure in the oven to make it permanent. My acrylic paints kept getting too thick. I was making lots of mistakes and cleaning the glass a lot.... so I researched what I needed. This does help keep the paint wet enough to use for a longer time. In addition, it is water-based. Most of the mediums that I found in the craft stores were oil based and I didn't want that hassle. Plus, the ones that I found online were very expensive and I wasn't even sure it they were the right product. This was cheap enough that I was willing to take a chance on it.Now, if it would only paint by itself.... I am certainly no Van Gogh, but who knows.... maybe with enough patience and practice..

I do a lot of paint by numbers and this really puts the finishing touch on most paintings! And it's at a great price/

Does its job.
