* A thickening gel for water soluble acrylic paint and mediums.
* Used in small amounts, produces handling characteristics very close to that of oil or encaustic paint.

* Drying time will be between 24 hours to 7 days depending upon amount of Liquithick added to paint or medium.
* Liquithick does not increase transparency.

Directions
* Start by adding a very small amount of Liquithick to paint or medium and mix well with a palette knife. The proper proportion will vary with color and desired effect.
* Proportions of 20 or 25 parts color to 1 part Liquithick will change the handling characteristics.
* Continue adding Liquithick slowly until the desired viscosity is achieved.
* Add only enough for desired effect and do not exceed 1 to 4 ratio as excessive shrinkage and cracking may occur.
