About the product

GOLDEN Soft Gel Mediums

Experience many ways to build texture.

GOLDEN Soft Gels are essentially colourless paints, as they utilize the same 100% acrylic polymers as acrylic paints. Thinner than Heavy Body Acrylics, this gel produces a brilliant glaze when mixed with a small amount of colour. It can also be used for the wet blending of colour. Soft Gel Gloss makes an ideal isolation coat for your acrylic paintings, before applying a final, removable varnish. Simply thin with water and apply with a brush.

Transparency Transparent once dry
Thin Thick
Texture Medium/Smooth, Holds, but smooths strokes
Finish Matte
For Use With Acrylics, Collage

Customers praised this versatile gel medium as "a must-have" for mixed media and acrylic artists. It excels at extending paints, creating textures, and serving as an adhesive for collage work. Shoppers noted it provides professional finishes without making paints too fluid, and works excellently for mounting watercolors and as a base coat before varnishing.

A Must Have

Being a mixed media artist, Golden gels are a "must-have". I use the matte and gloss soft gels, heavy gels and other gels for texture and other effects.

Golden Soft Gel Matte medium works very well

Used it to anchor my finished Watercolour paintings on to a wooden panel. That way no need for matting and framing under glass. A brayer helped seal it evenly. Worked very well. Thanks Golden, Bonnie M

Great for extending Golden paints without making them too fluid. Also good for giving a nice, rich finish to a painting.

Best Medium for collage

Golden Semi Gloss Medium is excellent used as a glue for collage art and as a top coat before using archival varnish. This gives a professional finish to collage art work.
