Thank you so much for this tour of mysterious acrylic products! The “beyond just the paints” category of acrylic extenders and binders and mediums and glazes and gels gets so complicated so quickly!
Hi Stella, Thank you for your comment. I'm glad this video could shine a light on these mysterious products for you.
Nancy Reyner is Robert Burridge - "BobBlast" female version. Both make us happy with positive vibes and both make art look easy even if it's not and both make us paint looser without fear. Love them both.
Greetings from Saudi Arabia.
Very informative. Thank you!
You are welcome!
I'm a watercolor artist, almost 2 years self taught. I'm trying to branch out into acrylic/oil/gold leaf. You are such an inspiration, thank you!

Very useful information. Thank you.

this is just the kind of info I was looking for. thank you very much...
i intend to use these medium and heavy gels with my faux stained glass project and i'd like to know if once dry and has turned transparent and retained the patterns or texture i created with it, would it be strong enough for solvent based vitrail paints ( Pebeo / Lefranc )?
hi, nice video, thankyou. What wud u recommend I use for thickening acrylic paint, as I want to paint with pallette knives in impasto style?... and I think I prefer a matt or satin look.
👍👍👍 nice ma'am
what kind of medium do i need to use just tothin the paint or make a gradient? like instead of using water. i use the heavy body liquitex acrylic and i dont want to make it more matt or more glossy. do i have to buy both mediums and mix them?
Hello nice video. one question: Can i mix GEL and PASTE? So the paste is a liiittle bit more fluid. Thanks
Hey! Can you maybe tell me what medium I should use if I want to to paint a whole canvas with only one acrylic color to create one rich, smooth, without any marks one colored canvas ? It will usually show brush strokes or other unevenness. What medium should you recommend to make the acrylic color more fluid and maybe should I just pore it over the canvas instead of paint it on? Thanks :)
Can any of them be mixed with acrylic paint to change the colors
I can ask you this. Behind you in that furniture You have a book : " Created Perfect Paintings " .I`m curious about that book, where can I buy it ?
Good stuff.
Thanks!
Does acrylic medium stick down resin? I have some cured resin pieces I have cut up and want to stick onto an acrylic painting. I don't want to have to mix up a tiny amount of resin to do this, so wondered if a gloss medium of gloss gel will do the same job? TIA
Hi Tracey, I do not know the answer to that, however I suggest calling Golden's Tech Department. They are very knowledgeable and helpful.
I've heard of using DAP Crack Shot instead of molding paste because it is much less expensive. ?? Has anyone else used this DAP to give texture? thanks for video
