Gloss Super Heavy Gel Medium is a heavy-bodied medium with great density and exceptionally high viscosity. This thick gel dries to a translucent gloss finish. It increases body density and viscosity, achieving a consistency similar to oil paint with brush or palette knife marks. Extending paint while increasing brilliance and transparency allows for prolonged workability compared to other gel mediums. Use it as an extender, ground, or binder for powdered pigments to create cost-effective "student-grade" extra-heavy viscosity thick gloss paint.
