Description

BASICS mediums & Varnishes are developed for students and artists that need dependable quality at an economical price. BASICS mediums are mixed with acrylic paint to adjust how the paint works, feels and looks. They can be used to add texture, adjust paint flow, and alter the working properties of the color. Because they include acrylic resin, these mediums maintain or add to the stability of the paint film, and can be used in any amount desired. BASICS Varnishes are permanent and used to protect finished paintings.

  • Works great!
I have started to paint miniatures for our games. This product works great to seal them and cut down on the shine from the acrylic paint. Drys quickly and easy clean up.

  • One of the best non-toxic brush on sealants out there
It works wonders. Super high quality, dries transparent and matte, and I feel like for what you pay you really get a lot to work with. It doesn't yellow or get sticky like mod-podge does. If you're considering a sealant, this one's a great option!

  • Good product
Very good product but very expensive through Amazon. Go to Michel and it’s $7 the same container.

  • The best out there
Love this stuff great for all size jobs. Works great on the brush and slightly thinner through the air brush. Great value as well. Also depending on under color it can make colors more vibrant.

  • Meets expectations
This item provides a protective coating for more than just acrylic paintings. In my class, we use it to seal pressed flower designs on canvas and torn paper mandalas on canvas. It's a good product.

  • At times, more glossy than matte, but overall, no complaints.
I am highly sensitive to smells, but this has no smell. I use a foam brush to apply, then wash it out well with soap and water. It washes out easily. If you want a higher shine, glassy effect, apply multiple layers. However be careful--just because it is dry does not mean it is "cured". I have found it is easy to scratch the surface of it until it has had several days to thoroughly set. Note: If your product gets thick after a long period (2 yrs., in my case), DO NOT try to water it down, even though it is water-based. It left a white haze on my projects. My fault; I should have tested it on a scrap piece to verify it wouldn't be affected. ... show more
