Liquitex Professional Iridescent Tinting Medium

Adds richness to acrylic colours by creating a metallic/pearlescent effect. Dries translucent and will not oxidise. Can add shimmer or sparkle to a picture even in the smallest amount. Achieve the most dramatic effects when mixing with transparent effects.

What it does

Techniques

• Iridescent effects

• Highlights

• Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products

• Can be thinned by diluting with up to 30% water - distilled water will give best results

• Mix as much as you like into acrylic colour to create the iridescence and viscosity you want

• Stir gently to avoid creating foam - if bubbles appear, leave it to sit while the bubbles rise and disappear

How not to use it

• Do not shake or vigorously over-brush as this can result in a foggy, hazy look when dry

• May temporarily lighten colours until dry

• Do not use with any non-acrylic media
