Liquitex Gel Mediums add body to thinner paint for impasto techniques as well as extending color volume and adding transparency. Gels tend to dry slower than thinner paint films, allowing for more workable time. Gel mediums can modify acrylic paints in a variety of ways and since they contain acrylic resins, tend to improve adhesion and durability. Liquitex gel mediums can add texture enhance color and increase transparency within your work Liquitex Matte Gel Painting Medium dries translucent with a satin/matte finish. Viscosity and body similar to Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Color. Translucent when wet, transparent when dry. Thicker applications result in less transparent, dry medium films. Mix with Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Color to obtain paint similar in color depth to oil paint. Color mix will dry to a satin sheen. APPLICATION: AS EXTENDER: Mix with Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Color to extend volume and increase translucency while maintaining paint viscosity. Mix with Liquitex Soft Body Artist Color to extend volume and increase translucency while increasing paint viscosity. AS GROUND: Recommended as a translucent ground (size) for acrylic paint with excellent tooth and adhesion as an alternative to gesso. Will allow some color and texture of the support to show through. Use as a substitute size for the hide glue size traditionally used for oil paintings. To prevent Substrate Induced Discoloration (SID) wash cotton or linen canvas before use. EXTERIOR MURALS: If the support or wall is very rough, a coat of Liquitex Matte Gel Medium should be brushed, or toweled, onto the surface prior to gesso application. FOR IMPASTO EFFECT: Mix with Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic Color for impasto effects that dry to a matte sheen.

If you laser print your photo onto the shiny side of the a label’s backing paper (you have to peel off and discard/use elsewhere the actual label) you can just just peel it off after drying instead of the water and rub method! **Q: Description states, "Usually ships within 2 to 4 months". I'm hoping that is an error because I was just about to order this.** A: It depends on seller. If you want to order this with current seller which lead time to ships is 2-4 month, try to contact and confirm with them. It might be an error like you said. Or you might try to order this with another seller with less lead time to ship. The 99 Give Store usually ships this item within 3-4 business days. **Q: I used this to create textures for my painting and it just shrank and flattened. I thought this was suppose to give texture and high peaks. How come?** A: Firstly, the product will flatten out on a flat surface as it dries - this is an unavoidable effect of gravity. "High peaks" must be carefully sculpted and then reshaped while drying - consider drying your piece upside down. Let gravity do its work. Secondly, this product is designed to be used with other Liquitex acrylic paints - if you're mixing it with another type of paint, an unfavorable chemical reaction may be affecting your desired result. The same holds true if you are applying it over a painted surface which has dried. Third, you could consider adding a stiffening agent, such as quick setting acrylic adhesive, to your mixture. This will force the gel to "set up" quickly and stiffen. Experiment with a little bit of material first. **Q: After I transfer a photo, can I use this on top as a finish or is it just for the transfer process?** A: You use it as a top coat, it dries clear and works as a seal ## Frequently Bought Together - Liquitex Professional Matte Gel Medium, 237ml (8-oz) - Liquitex BASICS Acrylic Paint, 250ml (8.5-oz) Tube, Titanium White - Liquitex Professional Gloss Varnish, 237ml (8-oz) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/3450698-professional-matte-gel-medium-237ml-8-oz](https://www.desertcart.no/products/3450698-professional-matte-gel-medium-237ml-8-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
