Liquitex Matte Super Heavy Gel provides the widest variety of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at every stage of the painting process. Liquitex Gel Mediums enhance the thickness of thinner paint for impasto techniques, increase colour volume, and enhance transparency. It features a remarkably thick, extra-heavy body—the thickest "clear" gel.

Gels typically dry more slowly than thinner paint films, allowing for extended working time. Gel mediums can modify acrylic paints in various ways, and because they contain acrylic resins, they generally enhance adhesion and durability. Liquitex gel mediums can add texture, improve colour, and increase transparency in your artwork.
