I prefer to pour it on and spread it with my fingers. It self-levels and you have no brush marks.

Thank you for sharing and the content; What Brand Brushes (soft and synthetic) may you recommend for Acrylic Painting? What size is that in this video?

[wilmabarnett]

If you use this as a pouring medium for acrylic pour painting, would you still need to add an extra coat as a varnish, or will it already be varnished?

[GrammyTapDancing]

Best varnish still. Just 1 coat brushed on good to go drys fast in few hrs

Julie YOU are AWESOME! Thank you for making it idiot proof (me proof) I will add this to my array of Art Products but it will not just decorate my wall.

Thsnks for the tip about natrual brushes no good with varnish. Guess i got to paint in layers. Parts at a time. But i use oils.

Hi Can you just put some of that in your paints as a medium ? And get the gloss effect.

[zeppy]

Thanks for this helpful video! I picked up some of this the last time I got paints because it looked useful. I tried to find details about it on Liquitex's website, but neither their own Search box nor Google could point me to the right page. (Rather pathetic, isn't it, when a company won't tell you about its own products?) You probably explained it better than they could. :?)

[cygnetcreations]

Thanks, I have been looking for this information!

[akumax]

If I use uv acrlyic and if I apply this will it damage the glow ?

[dinaelsherbiny]

Can I use it over paintings that has silicone?

[AN-ouqu]

I used medium as varnish. Is that dangerous?
