Overview

Used to alter or enhance the characteristics of oil colour, Mediums are used to modify the rate of drying, increase gloss, improve flow or add texture. Based on the binders used in milling the colours (e.g. linseed oil, alkyd resin and modified oils for water mixable oils), mediums should be used in moderation as an additive to the colour; we also recommend avoiding adding multiple mediums to oil colour

Used to modify the rate of drying, increase gloss, improve flow or add texture, mediums should be used in moderation as an additive to the colour.
