Create stunning effects on your fabric, textile projects and canvas that will last for years to come. Add unique effects to your fabric and textile projects, with an archival formulation it’s flexible and durable, so you can be sure your design will last over time. Achieve watercolour effects, blend colours, and add texture to your fabric. Improving the paints adhesion and colour penetration, it also extends your colour further without affecting acrylic stability or colour integrity.

To use, mix in a 1:1 ratio with a soft body acrylic, add more if using a heavy body acrylic to get your desired consistency. For watercolor effects use 5 parts medium to 1 part soft body. Stir gently to avoid creating bubbles, if they appear let the mixture sit still they rise and disappear. Paint using a brush or roller, initially apply a thin layer to avoid cracking. Can be added directly to acrylic paint when still wet to blend. Heat setting not needed, dries permanent. 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.

What it does:

  • Enhances blending and workability of acrylics on textiles and unprimed canvas
  • 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
  • Doesn't require heat setting
  • Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
  • Can be machine or hand-washed once dry

  • 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

  • Paint on with brush, roller etc, using a thin layer to avoid cracking
  • Can be added directly to textile when paint is still wet to blend colour
  • 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
