Texture: Fluid Sheen: Satin Relative Opacity: Transparent Use in conjunction with any acrylic medium or acrylic color when increased flow and absorption and decreased film tension and friction are important. A flow enhancer that improves the flow, absorption and blending of any water-soluble paint (i.e. acrylic paint), medium, ink or dye. Minimizes brush marks by reducing friction of paint application. Does not contain binder. Over thinning of acrylic paint with Liquitex Flow-Aid and applying to a non-absorbent surface (i.e. gessoed canvas) may result in poor adhesion. Always make a test piece for your particular application and surface. On non-absorbent surfaces, will increase the fluidity and open (drying) time of the paint. On absorbent surfaces, will act as a stain, dye or watercolor.
