Even though acrylic colors are offered in various different consistencies and finishes, the use of gels and mediums in conjunction with such colors broadens the working properties and expands on the possible results. Altering Consistency, Altering Sheen, Gluing/Laminating, Transparency, Adding Texture. Use as a Glue: Gels and mediums are also frequently used as a glue for collaging materials together. This technique is valuable when collaging any materials that water-based acrylics have no difficulty bonding with. Certain materials, such as glass and certain metals and plastics, should be avoided. The Gloss products are usually preferred for this purpose, since they offer the greatest transparency; however, the other sheens work just as well as a glue. Generally, we recommend the Soft Gel Gloss for this purpose, although the choice of medium or gel can be as exacting as the artist wishes. Controlling Sheen: The gels and mediums offer a variety of reflectance properties (Matte, Semi-Gloss and Gloss), enabling artists to control sheen in their artwork by blending the appropriate gel or medium with acrylic paints. The typical higher gloss of Heavy Body or Fluid Acrylics can be reduced by adding any of the matte gels or mediums. Similarly, to increase gloss of Matte or High Load Acrylics, the addition of a gloss gel or medium will prove effective. More subtle modifications can be created using the semi-gloss products, or a combination of a matte and gloss gel or medium. 5
