Liquitex Professional Silkscreen Medium

Liquitex Silkscreen Medium is a slow drying medium that can be mixed with acrylic paints to make them suitable for screen printing techniques.

The slow drying property of Silkscreen Medium gives you more time to perfect your print. It also improves colour flow and makes it easier to print in more detail. It will lower the viscosity of heavy body colours, making their texture more suitable for printing. Colour is also extended without affecting the stability of the paint film and also maintaining colour opacity. This medium has excellent adhesion, durability and archival properties.

Use with Acrylic Paints and intermix with other Liqitex acrylic mediums on all acrylic-friendly surfaces. Silkscreen Medium is suitable for screen printing and monoprinting.

Silkscreen Medium is lightfast, archival, permanent, non-yellowing, water-resistant when dry and intermixable with all Liquitex products.
