Effects Glass Beads

    Build flexible, high gloss, bubbly effects with this thick acrylic texture gel.

    What it does

    • Glass microspheres add shimmering structure and texture to this 100% acrylic polymer gel
    • Dries to a reflective, undulating finish, for a bubble-like effect
    • Highly flexible and adhesive
    • Will not chip or crack on canvas
    • Can be used on its own, mixed with color or overpainted with acrylics or oils once dry
    • Apply thickly to create dramatic 3D effects, or finely to give surface texture
    • Provides an undulating ground for acrylics and oils
    • Maintains color adhesion, durability and archival quality
    How to use it
    • Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products
    • Apply with knife or brush
    • Can be thinned with small amount of distilled water if required
    • Mix with different consistencies and ratios of acrylic color/medium to create custom texture
    • Start by adding very small amounts of color and build up as needed
    • Overpaint when dry with acrylic/oil color
    • To use as a ground - apply a thin layer to surface and leave to dry
    • Apply thickly for sculptural texture
    • Mix with Gloss Medium to create a textured glaze
    • For dramatic reflective effects, mix with transparent/semi-opaque colors or apply 'neat' over dried paint
    • For reflective textured glazes, mix with Gloss Medium and small amounts of Soft Body
    • Can be mixed with acrylic-compatible powdered pigments
    How not to use it
    • If varnishing, don't be too vigorous as this can cause clouding or foaming - spray varnish will give best results
    • Do not use with any non-acrylic compatible media
