LIQUITEX Modeling Paste Acrylic Gel Medium-8oz

Extra heavy and highly opaque, this marble paste is composed of marble dust and a 100% polymer emulsion. It is ideal for constructing robust textures on sturdy surfaces and shaping three-dimensional forms. Upon drying, it achieves the hardness of stone and can be further refined through sanding or carving. By removing the top of the container and allowing some water to evaporate slowly, it can be manipulated like clay until it reaches a clay-like consistency.

This versatile paste adheres well to any non-oily, absorbent surface, but care should be taken to avoid rapid drying, which may result in cosmetic mud cracking rather than structural damage. When combined with acrylic colors, it serves as a subtle tinting white while simultaneously enhancing thickness and stiffness. As a substrate, it provides an excellent base for a variety of mediums such as acrylic and oil paint, oil pastels, oil bars, watercolor, graphite, and dry pastels.

In conclusion, this marble paste offers artists a durable and flexible material for creating dynamic textures and forms, making it a valuable tool for a wide range of artistic projects.
