What has your experience been with Golden Pouring Medium? Did you see the full 11 Pouring Medium Roundup we did where Golden came out #1 based on color, mix, dry, and cost? czcams.com/video/Cr29LwAnXuA/video.html
I had a good experience with the GAC 800, I had watched your videos on mediums and watched it again today. Thanks so much David. I am sure I will have future questions. Have a great day, Thanks for taking my questions..
My new favorite "Big Guy"!!! Thanks for sharing.
Aw Ma you're going to make me blush. Happy Holidays my friend.
Just wanted to say that your videos are so informative, you take the time to teach and help others, thank you so much for all your hard work
Thanks. I appreciate the feedback.
thank you for these very informative videos - so much appreciated!
You are so welcome! I hope I can save people some time and money by not having to experiment themselves.
Can this mixture work on ceramic tiles?
Yes. They need to be completely clean and may need a quick scuff with sand paper if they are really shinny.
Thank you for the best evaluation of Golden’s pouring medium, I love it. The finished painting feels like leather, I appreciate finding out the cost ratio. Have you tried us ing Flotrol with it for cells? I have been trying other mixes but I am going back to Golden glossy. Thanks again. Anns_Art83
I have. Any mixture of floetrol to golden unless it is almost all floetrol and only a little golden still doesn't produce many cells.
Where did you find a website that you could look at color palettes?
That is fascinating with the silicone from the previous pour? I have had trouble with forgetting to clean a pice before I throw down a resin topcoat. I hadn’t considered what it would do to a re-pour!
I just typed "color palette generator". I also use the free color mixing chart from drawandpaintforfun.com as a reference.
Hi Davide, I have another question. How long do you have to wait for your painting to cure before you Resin it, or seal it?
At least two weeks for small paintings. A bit longer for large ones. That is probably a tad bit of overkill but I don't want to ruin the really big ones if a few extra days will help.
Hi, Can you make a video testing Golden fluid paints with Golden pouring medium?.
I might one day. Problem is most of my viewers are looking for the economical options and Golden definitely isn't that.
Hi! I have a question. What ratio of medium vs paint do you recommand for this medium.
Some sources says 3 parts medium for 1 part paint, but the consistency is way too liquid for my taste.
I do understand that it also depends on the paint brand we are using.
Thanks for your nice work, and sorry for my limited English.
With normal medium body paints I do about 2:1 medium/paint. Sometimes I get closer to 3 but only with really thick more heavy body paints.
@@LeftBrainedArtist Thanks!
Why was your cup stuck to the painting? Did you just pour the picture and repoured it right away when dry to touch? I thought you had to let it cure? Also does adding floetrol increase the drying time?
So I have found that almost all pours have a slight tackiness too them when they dry. Most of the time you don't notice but if you put any weight on it (like a cup full of paint) it sticks a tiny bit. Now days I always put a varnish on which doesn't have that same problem plus adds some UV protection.
Adding floetrol doesn't affect drying time that I have seen. Floetrol by itself dries really fast. It's made to work with house paint which dries pretty fast. We use a bit thicker application in this case that's why it takes 12 - 36 hours to dry depending on how big your painting is (cure is more like 2 - 3 weeks).
Hi David, I accidentally bought Golden heavy body gel acrylic medium, Can I still use this as my medium? If so how would I use it?
Nope. That is for relief painting with acrylics. You can use it to thicken paints or as the binding agent for pigments but not for a medium by itself.
@@LeftBrainedArtist Thank you
@@LeftBrainedArtist So I can add pigments to it? and make my color???
@@doloresdrury8018 Correct. That Masse Art channel has a video about that recently.
Do you mix this product with Floetrol ?
You can if you want to add a little more natural cellular action to your paintings. It isn't necessary but it is definitely ok to do so.
I've searched for color pouring medium gloss, but can only find gloss pouring medium. Is it the same thing?
I believe they have rebranded and that is the same thing.
