Gamblin Solvent Free Gel Medium Oil 150Ml

This is great stuff! I used to use Liquin as my medium, but it has such a strong odor that when I used it indoors my wife complained. Then I found this gel medium. It is the same consistency as Liquin, and provides good blend ability for the paints without any noticeable odor. Having it in a tube makes dispensing it much easier than a bottle!

Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel smooths out the paint, makes it dry faster, and does it all without a trace of smell. It’s easy to work with, mixes in quickly, and keeps my studio air fresh. My paints feel more cooperative, and I can work longer without getting lightheaded. A simple, clean upgrade to my oil painting setup. Highly recommended.

Decent price and as a professional Artist this has become my go to medium

Works well

I have been using Liquin for years and love how fast it dries, however the smell worries me. I decided to look for a more eco-friendly substitute. Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel Medium Oil is a painting medium that is made from safflower oil and alkyd resin. It is non-toxic and contains no Gamsol or petroleum distillates, which fit my first criteria of being more eco-friendly. There is hardly any smell to the product. My second criterion was that it had to dry fast. I found that thin layers of solvent-free mediums can dry to the touch in about 36–48 hours and thick layers can be dry to the touch within a week or two. I am very happy to have found this product and I am now using it in my paintings.

If you keep the 25% ratio, thin layers of paint are touch dry after 48 hrs. It also has a semi-glossy finish. Gamblin states it's not suitable for initial layers, but I only paint 2 or 3 layers maximum. I can make the upper layers fatter by adding a drop of oil to the paint mixture., or a little more gel. 4 stars because I find it slightly irritating and it has a little odor too (bleached linseed oil has neither but dries slower), but maybe that is only my problem.

This is all I use so all I can say is 5*s

I have used several oil painting mediums and enjoy the consistency. There is no smell, and it does the job. It's a great price point, too.

Gamblin added to the paint speeds up the drying time for your oil paintings. That's it ! I wish you could buy a much larger tube guys !!!!!!

Very good product. It gives structure and brightness to the oil painting.

Aumentato di 10 euro in pochi mesi!!! Lo pagavo 30 euro (ed era già caro!) adesso costa 41... peccato! Il prodotto è stupendo

Excellent.

I am really happy with this, it works as intended and I like the gel as it makes it easy to portion and mix in. This size tube will go a long way.
