Golden Fluid Acrylic is an undiluted acrylic that provides optimal tinting strength and coverage. Offering the same intensity of color as Golden Heavy Body Acrylics, Golden Fluid Acrylics have a more even, flowing characteristics. Golden Fluids are useful for dry brush application, fine details, pouring, spraying (particularly when mixed with Golden Airbrush Medium), staining techniques and many others.

Quality product

Fluids are created by loading an acrylic polymer binder with concentrated levels of quality pigments for a wide selection of permanent and lightfast colors. No fillers or extenders are added to achieve the desired consistency, nor is the fluid quality achieved with additional water. Each pigment is made to its own level of matte or gloss and its own unique degree of opacity or transparency, depending upon its own intrinsic nature.

Golden Fluid Acrylics have the same pigment load as the Heavy Body Acrylics but in a viscosity similar to heavy cream. Fluids allow for smooth flowing applications while retaining color intensity, tinting strength, film integrity, and adhesion.

Usage

Fluids blend easily with all acrylic colors, and readily tint gels, mediums, gessoes and grounds. Fluid Acrylics are extremely versatile, and ideal for fine brushwork, glazing, staining, water media techniques and many more. Mix Fluid Acrylics with Airbrush Medium for airbrush application of artwork including textiles.

Note: We recommend diluting the Fluids with no more than a 1:1 ratio of Fluid Acrylic to water.

Thick Film Drying Considerations

Although Golden Fluids colors retain excellent flexibility when dry, when paint is applied in relatively thick films, one must remember that all acrylic paints shrink considerably (approximately 25-40%) upon drying. This tendency, coupled with the thin consistency of the Fluids, will yield surface defects called crazes. Blending Fluids with GOLDEN Soft, Medium, Heavy or Extra Heavy Gels will significantly help to prevent crazing.

Features:
o Lays down in thin passages of paint that have high pigment loads
o No fillers or extenders and no water are added
o Each pigment is made to its own level of matte or gloss and its own unique degree of opacity or transparency, depending upon its own intrinsic nature.
o Retains excellent flexibility when dry. Note: all acrylic paints shrink considerably (approximately 25-40%) upon drying.
