What, Why & How: Painting with GOLDEN Fluid Acrylic Mediums

Very informative....thank you

Why isn't there GAC 300, 600 or 700?

Golden "gel medium" has carcinogenic chemicals in them ...

Awesome information! I look forward to touring the Golden factory in a couple weeks.

I am so in love with golden products...I know they are expensive...but I still love them💞💞

hi...can this medium be used with camel or fevicryl acrylic colors?

very helpful.. yet I need one suggestion please help.. I want to mix some fluid medium with mica powder.. which one will give best effect like the golden's "gold deep fluid" ?

So would the GAC100 be like a thinner version (more watery/lower viscosity) of the gloss medium? I have Golden heavy body paints and am curious which one to get to make them thinner. Do these products extend the drying time at all?

Hye can gac100 use ad binder for natural clay paint preparation

Hello, I was priming a canvas with golden gloss medium on a layer of acrylic gesso with the idea to paint with ink, but now I want to paint with acrylic, so is a good idea to paint with acrylic on the gel gloss medium surface?...

Hello Patty, I successfully completed an immediate image transfer to gessoed canvas, as the image was still fuzzy after much paper rubbing I applied a coat of your gloss medium which clarified it well. As I am using the black and white image as an underpainting is it safe to then complete the picture in oils? Thank you for taking the time to respond, I am anxious to confirm it will be ok. Best wishes :-)

Can you add GAC 200 to acrylic to make it more sandable when dry?

Does this make the paint more flexible, I paint on denim

I bought GAC 800. The directions say 9 parts GAC to one part paint. I’m sure it’s a great product, but extremely costly.

Can you explain me something?
What is equivalent to venetian turpentine in your products?

Thank you Patti for your informative video. Having completed an immediate transfer onto canvas (Melanie M.) Wondering which product would be better to seal/and improve clarity as image is a little fuzzy and further rubbing would compromise image. I thought clear gesso or fluid matte medium. Would appreciate your advice and watch for a response, best wishes.

BTW Patti, I used an ink jet copy which I found after many many failures, to be preferable to laser. I am quite surprised.

Can I use as much Fluid Matte Medium to thin or extend Fluid Acrylis as I want or is there a specific ratio I need to know?

One more question regarding Fluid Matte Medium mixed with Fluid Acrylics: Can I add a water/wetting agent solution to thin paints down which already are mixed with Matte Fluid Medium?

What is the difference between golden color pouring medium gloss and golden gloss pouring medium?

What kind of medium can I use to mix with paint to recolor soles of sneakers?

Very helpful!

I have been using Golden mediums for decades in my paintings. I can't say enough about the quality. Fantastic products.

thank you for a great overview of your medium product line. I would like to know if I use a gloss or matte medium during my painting, can I then alter the finished painting with either gloss or satin varnish? (i.e. will final varnish cancel out either the matte or gloss finish created by the medium). thank you for your reply.

What would be the best medium to use to turn Heavy Body paints into the Fluid acrylics? I accidentally got heavy body when I meant to get fluid. Instead of returning them I figure I can just use a fluid medium to turn them into fluid acrylics. What would be the closest way to mimic this?

Thank you!

can someone please make a video explaining what ASTM means and what the different series mean D:

Random question- can you mix mediu.s in with house paint? Ty

I loved this brand when I saw their educational videos that teach their product how to use it and what they are for that inspires confidence in me at the same time that I have to buy a product there are so many brands on the market and little instruction on how and what they are for products. thank you very much GOLDEN is a very good quality product .🙌🙌🙌

Hi I just saw your video and didn't see my golden color pouring medium color did I miss it hope I didn't buy the wrong one I thought I saw a artist use it with other stuff to make cells I love cells I do blooms and after I finish bthe bloom I have negative spaces I would love to fill them up with cells.can you help me. So sorry this is so long I'm 85 and a New art tryer.i just love it😍😘

thanks for the detailed explanation. so useful in clarifying which to use when.

Can I mix the goldens low dry medium with this one?

They need to make a GAC1,000

Hi. I have seen that you have presentations of more than 3 liters. I would like to know where I could buy them and which of these is better to mix with your fluid colors. Thank you!

Is the GAC 100 also an acrylic polymer?

I read somewhere.that Golden's pouring mediums are derived from GAC800. But there are matte and glossy varieties. So if you wanted to have your fluid acrylics dry to a matte finish, or if you wanted the same for your heavy body paints - and wish to significantly reduce their viscosity (to a little thicker then a liquid acrylic), would Matte Pouring Medium be a good choice for.both applications?

I have baby at home and am wondering if Golden paints and Medium can be used in home where little kids are around or should it be in a ventilated room like the Oil. Thanks

What about GAC 700?

I have been using Golden glazing liquid with acrylics MAINLY for transparency build up but I find it sticky...what can I use instead ? will I get the same results with gloss/matte liquid (don't care about drying time). Thank you

I use GAC-200 after thinning heavy body for airbrushing.

Thank you for this informative video. I have a question: is the clear tar gel completely clear/transparent? I'm asking because I used Liquitex super heavy gel because I wanted to create some texture, but I also wanted it to be completely clear/transparent so that the image underneath the gel medium would be fully visible, but unfortunately I found it to be a bit too cloudy. Do you think Golden's clear tar gel would work better for this purpose?

Which Golden medium should you use for tole painting?

Can any of these be used like Gesso( preping a surface) --- for PLASTIC products????

What about gloss glazing medium

I only use Golden (and Vallejo)!

Can I mix it with regular varnish and golden extra heavy gel matt?

I like to know Golden Soft Body Paint , can you explain and what is the use.Thanks
