About the product
Gamblin Galkyd Gel - 150ml
Gamblin Galkyd G-Gel does not dry as quickly as some gel mediums, and is ideal for artists who want to create transparent impasto effects. It is a gelled, alkyd resin painting medium that will hold your brush and painting knife marks, and will allow you to apply multiple layers.
Customers praised this painting medium for its versatility and performance. It "glided on smoothly" and "reduced drying time" while maintaining workability. Artists appreciated it for making paint more mixable, working with cold wax, and achieving a satin finish. All reviewers gave 5-star ratings, highlighting its effectiveness for wet-on-wet techniques and layering work.
- It glided on smoothly, and most importantly reduced drying time. Very enjoyable to work with.
- Best medium to mix with cold wax and oil, leaves a satin finish to the surface which I prefer.
- You get a wonderful quick drying paint.
Galkyd Gel is the best medium to mix with cold wax and oil if yolooking to speed drying time between layers and it also leaves a satin finish to the surface which I prefer.
Very nice medium, I use it when I need to make paint more mixable. I like it better than linseed oil or stand oil. Probably also helps the paint dry faster, but not too fast, I usually work wet in wet on wood panels or canvas.
I used Gambling Galkyd Gel in a painting with gentle reflections and subtle shadows. It glided on smoothly, and most importantly reduced drying time. Very enjoyable to work with.
I like the effect of this Gel to add to an acrylic painting to convert it and use oil after the same painting opens the potential of what we can do.
In light!

If you mix the gel with wax in a 3 pts wax to 1 pt gel, and then add that to your oil paints, you get a wonderful quick drying paint.
