Write a reviewHave used this medium a lot recently as it gives my expensive oil paints a little more flow and depending colours with that tiny glow of enamel needed for parts of painting.
I bought this to experiment with and was very pleased. I'm not experienced enough with oils to be sure that I really need my paint to dry faster, but that's why I experimented.
I mostly work with thin layers so this Drying Medium does an excellent job. Each layer dries in just a few hours and the colours are still rich and vibrant. The fact that I can use it with a thinner or water also helps a lot. I 'd rather it didn't increase gloss but I already knew it does before buying so this is not something I'll complain about. No Winsor & Newton product has let me down so far.
