Golden Gel Mediums offer artists many ways to build texture. They range in consistency from pourable to moldable with varying degrees of sheen and transparency. They can be used to create glazes, extend paints, and change finishes. Some gels incorporate pumice, glass, or acrylic granules that impart unique reflective, rough, or absorbent surface qualities.

Soft Gels (L-R,Gloss, Matte, Semi-Gloss) are thinner than Heavy Body Colours. Mix with colour to produce a brilliant glaze. Soft gels can be a base for wet blending and also as an adhesive for collage.

Regular Gels (L-R: Gloss, Matte, Semi-Gloss) have the same viscosity as Heavy Body Acrylic Colours and are ideal for extending paint and regulating transparency without changing consistency. Useful for impasto.

Heavy Gels (L-R: Gloss, Matte, Semi-Gloss) are thicker than Heavy Body Acrylic Colours and may be blended with colours to increase body. Excellent for holding peaks.

Extra Heavy Gels (L-R: Gloss, Matte, Semi-Gloss) are thicker than Heavy Body Acrylic Colours and may be blended with colours to increase body. Excellent for holding peaks.

High Solid Gels (L-R: Gloss, Matte) are similar in body to Extra Heavy Gels. Because they contain less water and more acrylic solids, they shrink less than other gels. They blend well with colours and will retain brush strokes upon drying. Available in gloss and matte.
