Liquitex Professional Satin Fluid Medium 237ml. Liquitex Satin Medium gives acrylic paint a satin sheen finish while increasing colour saturation and brightness. Use it to lower the viscosity of heavier body paint and increase its flow, or to extend the volume of more fluid paint without affecting acrylic stability. The more you add, the thinner and more transparent the colour will be, so mix in until you achieve the viscosity and translucency you want. Collaging? Use it directly from the bottle as a lightweight glue. Or try it diluted in an atomiser to fix pastels or chalks.
