Glaze with Precision, Dry with Speed
Winsor & Newton Liquin Light Gel Medium is a modern solution for oil painters seeking a smooth, fast-drying medium with added control and brilliance. With a slightly thixotropic, gel-like consistency, this medium breaks down as you brush, flowing effortlessly across the surface without dripping—perfect for clean, fluid application. Designed to dry oil paint to the touch within 1 to 6 days (depending on thickness and color), it allows for efficient layering, making it ideal for artists working in glazes or wet-on-wet techniques.
This medium not only improves handling but also boosts the gloss and visual clarity of oil colors, helping you achieve luminous, richly layered effects. It resists yellowing to preserve the vibrancy of your palette over time, ensuring lasting brilliance in your finished work. While Liquin Light Gel excels within the painting process, it is not suitable as a final varnish—its role is to help you create dynamic, transparent layers that dry quickly and maintain color integrity.
