Chroma Atelier Interactive Mediums

Clear Painting Medium — Chroma Atelier Clear Painting Medium is a mid-viscosity medium that lets you dilute acrylic paint to a smoother consistency without altering its sheen. The high water content extends working time without the need to use a water sprayer.

Water Sprayer — Produces a fine, controlled mist that keeps Atelier Interactive Acrylics workable for as long as you wish using wet-in-wet and wet-over-damp techniques. Use with distilled water or Atelier Unlocking Formula.

Thick Slow Medium — This product extends the wet blending time and slows the drying process of Atelier Interactive Artists’ Acrylics. Its creamy, paint-like consistency and ability to absorb more water means that it can be used to spread and dilute paint without becoming thin or runny. This makes it well suited to artists who tend to over-use the water sprayer.

Fast Medium/Fixer — This product speeds the painting process when the artist does not need extra time —it’s great for layering. Also use it to reinforce a tender layer in preparation for scratch-back or scraping techniques.

Binder Medium — This water-based acrylic emulsion is used for preparing and sealing acrylic painting surfaces. It promotes good adhesion of paint and prevents moisture loss into the substrate. It is also used for isolation and barrier coats between layers.

Slow Medium — Use Slow Medium to extend the wet blending time, producing a smooth, mid-viscosity paint in small amounts. It is useful for glazing and other techniques requiring longer working time and thinner paint application. It also allows re-blending of paint that feels dry to the touch.

Retarder Medium — Use this retarder in very dry conditions. Mix 1 part retarder to 10 parts water.

Unlocking Formula — Use Unlocking Formula as a paint layer to permit blending paint back in or wiping away sections of applied paint. It can also extend wet blending time. It’s easy to apply using the Water Sprayer.
