Liquitex 237ml Airbrush Fluid Effects Medium

Adjust colour and mediums to a water-like state ready for airbrush application.

What it does

• Pre-filtered and pre-reduced to thin all consistencies of acrylic paint and mediums ready for spray techniques
• Reduces airbrush clogging and paint build-up around nozzle
• Increases transparency
• Makes paint behave like a watercolour, wash or stain
• Slightly extends open time
• Mixes well with other mediums to adjust body and handling qualities
• Maintains acrylic stability, paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
• Ideal for dry and hot climates

How to use it

• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
• Start by using in a 1:1 ratio with Soft Body Acrylic or Acrylic Ink, adjusting levels according to colour chosen as each varies due to pigment size and and concentration
• Airbrush nozzle size and spraying pressure will determine your ratio, so experiment to get the optimum mix
• Stir gently until the mixture is fully blended - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear
• If using with Heavy Body, strain once mixed to remove any particles of undissolved colour
• Clean out immediately after use before acrylic has a chance to dry

How not to use it

• Do not allow paint to dry in the airbrush - always wash it through with warm soapy water, a water/ammonia mixture, airbrush cleaner or alcohol
• Do not shake
• Do not use with any non-acrylic media
