Water-Based Additive for Thinning and Extending Workability of Acrylics
This specialized water-based additive is designed to thin slow-drying acrylic paints and mediums without affecting their extended open time. It reduces viscosity and helps maintain a smooth, workable consistency on the palette, making it easier to blend and manipulate colors over longer periods. Unlike traditional thinners, it contains no binders and does not form a film, making it ideal for use as a supporting additive rather than a standalone product.
In addition to thinning slow-drying acrylics, it can also function as a mild retarder when added in small amounts to fast-drying acrylics like heavy body or fluid formulas, giving artists more flexibility and control over drying time.
