GOLDEN Acryl Med 8 Oz Glaze Liquid Satin

I purchased this for use as a base to keep alcohol markers from bleeding through pages in adult coloring books. I found it very easy to use and put two thin coats just to be sure it was well protected. i was a little skeptical, but also very pleased that it worked great-- No bleed-through. Just know that it does cause the paper to curl a little. I weighted it overnight after it dried which helped with the curling, but it still curled a little along the edges. It worked great for markers, so I tried gel pens and colored pencils on the same page. The gel pens sit on top of the paper instead of being absorbed which leaves a shiny appearance on the page and resulted in a longer drying time. The colored pencils worked fine, although it did produce a grainy texture with the pencils. It still looks good, especially with the base coat of the alcohol markers. It's a good product, goes on easily and evenly, dries quickly, and produces the dersired effect. I'll keep in on hand from now on.

Love all Golden products. American made and best quality. This glaze I add to my paints or use as a top coat if you don’t want to use a clear. Will buy again.

Works great with acrylic paint! Definitely a need for any artist who paints. Easy to use and blendability is fine. Paint adheres and dries normal. I would definately buy again when mine runs out.

Is perfect for collage work in mixed media

I recently purchased the Golden Acryl Med 8 Oz Glaze Liquid Satin and I’m thrilled with its performance. It’s incredibly easy to use and does a fantastic job when layering paint to achieve shadows and depth. The glaze blends well and extends the working time of my acrylic paints, preventing them from drying too quickly. Additionally, I love the finish it gives my paintings. I wish I had it to use on the previous portrait I did; it would have come out so much better. It’s a great product and I highly recommend it. The only draw back is the cost.

This is an excellent product to add to acrylic paint. It prolongs drying and adds a satin finish that is very subtle.

I have been searching for so many years--- I have a serious neuro-immune disease (ME/CFS) and it causes me to have multiple chemical sensitivity, to an extreme degree. I love acrylics (especially Golden, they are the BEST) but I have always wanted to make paintings that look like oil paints. I have even tried the water soluble oil paints. and I fainted from the odors. Crushing, because I saved up a long time for a whole collection of the oils. So, I tried everyyyy acrylic medium I could find, to give the buttery smoothness of oils. The closest thing that I found was the slow-dry blending medium. (Not the slow-dry retarder, as the retarder is very limited on ratio of medium to paints.) But now, this is better! I am telling you, this is THE BEST additive / medium I have found, after so many years of searching! It sincerely transforms golden acrylics (especially open acrylics) into oil-like paints. The behavior of oils with the safety on acrylics!!! LOOOOOOVE!!!! ... THANK YOU, GOLDEN, for making such high quality products!!!

What a great item! I like this product much better than what I was using. For a base on coloring books it works. It does not give a rough tooth to the paper. I use alcohol markers with pencil over. It makes it much easier to shade when the tooth is not so abrasive as some of the others I have used. It is dries clear. It also makes it much easier to shade with pencils over the alcohol markers because you are not struggling over a rough tooth, making it easier on your hands. A really great item.

Produit magique, reste à savoir le maîtriser ! Dommage reste assez cher hélas.

Golden products always give the best outcome.

Ich benutze das Golden Satin Glazing Liquid zum Grundieren von nicht aquarellgeeignetem Papier in Malbüchern um darauf mit Aquarellfarben zu colorieren (Inktense, Aquarellstifte usw.). Das funktioniert deutlich besser als mit normalem Gesso, das ja immer mehr oder weniger körnig ist.

Great for collage as does not dry straight away you get 5 to 20 mins repositioning time. Can also be used to glaze and thin down acrylic paint. Nice satin to matt finish. Dries totally clear.

È un prodotto ottimo per fare velature con i colori acrilici. L’ho adoperato anche per proteggere i disegni a carbone su cui andare a mettere il colore. È satinato ed io preferirei una finitura matta
