Liquitex Professional Modeling Paste, 3.78L (128-oz)

Liquitex offers a wide range of acrylic mediums to spark creativity throughout the painting process. Gel Mediums from Liquitex can enhance thinner paint by adding body for impasto techniques, increasing color volume, and providing transparency. These gels dry at a slower pace compared to thinner paint, allowing for more flexibility during the creative process. With acrylic resins in their formula, gel mediums can modify acrylic paints in various ways while enhancing adhesion and durability.

One of Liquitex's standout gel mediums is the Modeling Paste Gel Painting Medium, a marble paste crafted from marble dust and 100% polymer emulsion. This medium is ideal for building heavy textures on sturdy surfaces and forming three-dimensional shapes. Once dried, it reaches the hardness of stone and can be sanded or carved for further detailing. By removing the top of the container and letting some water evaporate, the paste can even be manipulated like clay, providing endless possibilities for artistic expression.

When applying Liquitex Modeling Paste, choose from tools like a palette knife, trowel, paintbrush, or cake decorating tips to achieve different effects. To avoid shrinkage cracks, cover the drying paste loosely with plastic wrap or apply in thin layers no thicker than 1/4". Mix with acrylic colors for tinted paste or paint over it with acrylic or oil colors after drying. For sculptural work, apply thin layers and fill any cracks with additional paste.

For a sculptural project on a rigid support, use the Modeling Paste straight from the container. When working on a flexible support, mix the paste with Gloss Gel Medium, Matte Gel Medium, Gloss Heavy Gel Medium, or Super Heavy Gel Medium in a 50/50 ratio. With endless possibilities for applications, Liquitex Modeling Paste is a versatile medium for artists seeking to enhance their work.
