GOLDEN Heavy Gel Semi-Gloss Thick Acrylic Gel
GOLDEN Heavy Gel Semi-Gloss is a thick, semi-gloss acrylic gel with a thicker consistency than Heavy Body acrylics, designed for artists working with acrylics. It increases the paint’s volume and viscosity, reliably holds moderately high brush or palette knife marks, and creates a flexible, water-resistant film of archival quality when dry.
