About the product
Gamblin Solvent-Free Gels
Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel is the only solvent-free painting medium that supports a broad range of painting techniques with minimal compromise.
Solvent-Free Gel gives colours more flow and transparency, yet holds the shape of your brushmark. Solvent-Free Gel has a moderately fast drying rate, and increases gloss. Made from safflower oil and alkyd resin, Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel is non-toxic, and contains no Gamsol or petroleum distillates.
In comparison to other solvent-free mediums, Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel supports the broadest range of painting techniques with the least compromise across colour, dry time, texture, and mark-making. To ensure proper drying of paint layers, Solvent-Free Gel should be used in moderation with oil colours. No more than 25% by volume. To avoid wrinkling, apply mixtures of Solvent-Free Gel and oil colours thinly.
To paint solvent-free, try Gamblin Safflower Oil for cleaning brushes while you are working. After your painting session, brushes can be further cleaned using Gamsol and/or soap and water.
Available in 37 ml or 150 ml.
This solvent-free gel medium for oil painting received mostly positive feedback. Customers said it "feels fluid and easy to use" and effectively adjusts paint consistency, making thick paints more workable. Artists appreciated using it in layers and with oil sticks. One customer noted it's "okay but not as good as" a competitor brand.
- It feels fluid and easy to use. I would recommend any artist give it a try.
- This gel easily brings those thick paints back to the consistency I prefer.
- Absolutely love this product!
I love this product!! I use Gamblin oil paints almost , however, some (like yellow ochre) are often too ‘thick’ for the texture I like. This gel easily brings those thick paints back to the consistency I prefer.
Gamblin Sovent-Free Gel is okay but is not as good as Kama Alkyde Butter
First time using this product and was a good experience. I used it with the Sennalier oil sticks an liked the effect.
for some reason, I have never liked using gel medium but tried this for the first time and really do like it. It feels fluid and easy to use. I have taken to using it in layers after I have used Galkyd and it is perfect. I would recommend any artist give it a try.
I like it
Absolutely love this product!
When it comes to quality oil paints it’s only Gamblin. I trust their product.
