Liquitex Professional Bio-Based Acrylic Matte Gel Medium

Liquitex Professional Bio-Based Acrylic Matte Gel Medium is part of Liquitex’s pioneering Bio-Based range, designed for artists who value both quality and sustainability. Made with plant-based, renewable ingredients, this matte gel medium is perfect for those seeking to add texture and depth without surface shine.

Use it to:

• Thicken paint and add structure without gloss

• Achieve a beautifully soft, matte finish

• Extend the open time of your colours for complex mixing and blending

This medium extends and maintains the viscosity of heavy bodied colours without impacting film stability. It can be used with soft bodied acrylics and acrylic inks to thicken their texture. Mix as much as required into your acrylic colours - the more added, the more transparent the final colour will become. This medium can also be thinned up to 25% with water.

Bio-Based paints are made from renewable resources like corn, soy, sugarcane, and algae—materials that can be naturally replenished through sustainable farming. This reduces the carbon footprint compared to traditional acrylics and supports biodiversity. By choosing Bio-Based, you’re opting for a lower-impact, sustainable art medium that doesn’t sacrifice quality.
