Liquitex Acrylic Fabric Medium enhances the workability of acrylic paint on fabric. It is lightweight, non toxic and dries to a water resistant, non yellowing surface. Can be mixed with Liquitex acrylic paint colours and medium. Can be added directly to textile when paint is still wet to blend colour and does not require heat setting and can be machine or hand-washed once dry.
Improves adhesion and colour penetration
Improves flexibility and reduces dry paint stiffness
Controls colour bleeding
Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
Gives a consistently even, smooth application
Improves wet-on-wet blending
Extends your colour further without affecting acrylic stability
Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
How to use it:
For best results mix in a 1:1 ratio with Soft Body Acrylic, add more if using Heavy Body to get your desired consistency
For watercolour effects use 5 parts medium to 1 part Soft Body
Stir gently to avoid creating foam - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
Paint on with brush, roller etc, using a thin layer to avoid cracking
No need to iron to set
How not to use it:
Do not shake or vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry
Do not use with any non-acrylic media
The thicker you apply it, the less flexible it becomes
