Liquitex String Gel Effect Medium 237ml

Liquitex String Gel Effect Medium is a fluid acrylic medium designed to create long, thin, string-like lines and delicate drips when poured, drizzled or pulled across a surface. It is ideal for creating intricate linear effects, web-like patterns, fine details and flowing textures in acrylic artwork and mixed-media projects.

What it does

• Creates long, thin string-like lines and delicate drips
• Produces flowing, raised linear effects
• Ideal for creating web-like, thread-like and intricate patterns
• Can be used to create fine decorative details and textured lines
• Can be mixed with Liquitex Acrylic colours for customised effects
• Maintains a fluid consistency suitable for pouring, drizzling and drawing effects
• Adds texture, dimension and visual interest to acrylic artwork
• Suitable for experimental, abstract and mixed-media techniques

How to use it

• Apply to a clean, prepared surface
• Pour, drizzle or pull the medium across the surface to create string-like lines
• Use on its own for a clear, dimensional effect
• Mix with Liquitex Acrylic colours to create coloured string and line effects
• Experiment with different pouring heights, speeds and directions to vary the line thickness and pattern
• Allow the medium to dry thoroughly before adding further layers or working over the surface

How not to use it

• Do not apply excessively thick areas without allowing sufficient drying time
• Do not disturb the string or dripped effects while they are drying
• Do not use on unprepared or unsuitable surfaces
• Avoid excessive dilution, as this can reduce its ability to form defined string-like effects
• Do not expect a smooth, conventional gel-medium finish when the product is intended to create raised linear effects
