Use Golden Matte Mediums to extend acrylic paints while promoting even flow and leveling, and maintaining the film's stability. These 100% acrylic polymer liquid mediums also decrease gloss and increase translucency. 

Matte Medium and Fluid Matte Medium can be used as an alternative to gesso to create a clear ground. Super Matte Medium should always be blended with acrylic paints or mediums. Mix gloss and matte mediums to create a custom satin finish.

Golden Acrylic Polymer Varnish - Gloss, 4 oz bottle

__This product is currently unavailable due to a raw material discontinuation.  Golden will be working to reformulate this product with expected availability sometime in 2023. For more polymer varnish, click [here](https://www.dickblick.com/search/?q=polymer%20varnish "Polymer Varnish")__.

Golden Polymer Varnish with UVLS (UltraViolet Light Stabilizers) is a waterborne acrylic polymer varnish that dries to a protective, flexible, dust-resistant surface. Use it as a final sealant over acrylic paint.

Polymer Varnishes must be thinned before use. They have been formulated thicker than traditional varnishes, to maintain an even suspension of matting agents. This ensures more consistency in surface reflectance.

Varnishes are available in a highly reflective Gloss, and an exceptionally flat Matte. The matte varnish will lighten dark value colors. This varnish is removable with ammonia for restoration purposes. For interior use only.

Golden Fluid Acrylic Paint and Sets, assorted colors, 1 oz

Golden Fluid Acrylic Paints are highly intense, permanent colors with a consistency similar to heavy cream. Produced from lightfast pigments, not dyes, they offer very strong colors with very thin consistencies, and contain no fillers or extenders. Golden Fluid Acrylics are ideal for spraying, brushing, staining, and pouring techniques.


Created for artists who want a low-viscosity, pigment-saturated paint, these paints contain high pigment levels suspended in an acrylic polymer vehicle. Unlike mixtures of heavy-bodied paints and water, they offer fine dispersion, high tinting strength, durability, flexibility, and good adhesion. 


Golden Fluid Acrylic Paints have a similar formulation, pigment load, and color strength compared to Golden Heavy Body Artist Acrylics. Fluid Acrylics have greater leveling, and they load a brush more evenly than thicker paints, resulting in a consistent flow off the brush and longer, more uniform brush strokes.


To create heavier strokes, blend Fluid Acrylics with any Golden Gel Medium to thicken the paint to various extents. Because of the thin consistency and potency of Golden Fluid Acrylics, they are the easiest of all the paint systems to incorporate into powerful gel mixtures. These paints retain excellent flexibility when dry, greatly diminishing the likelihood of cracking that occurs in other natural and synthetic polymer systems. They can also absorb the constant stress and strain placed on canvas when shipped or as it expands and contracts with changes in temperature and humidity

Golden Heavy Body Artist Acrylics, various sizes.

Golden Heavy Body Artist Acrylics are known for their exceptionally smooth, thick, and buttery consistency. They have the ability to "stand up" and retain brushstrokes or palette knife marks on the canvas.


The Golden Heavy Body line also contains the largest assortment of unique pure pigments in a 100% acrylic emulsion vehicle available to professional artists. There are no added fillers, extenders, opacifiers, toners, or dyes.


Each Golden Heavy Body Acrylic color is formulated differently depending on the nature of the pigment. Colors that tolerate higher pigment loads dry to a more opaque, matte finish, while colors that are more reactive and don't accept high pigment loading dry to a glossy finish and tend to be more transparent. Since Heavy Body Acrylics are free from additives (such as matting agents) the gloss of each color will be different.


Golden Heavy Body Artist Acrylics are permanent and lightfast. A hand-painted color chart is available upon request.

Harden, sculpt, and shape fabrics with Golden GAC 400 Fabric Stiffener. An alternative to rabbit skin glue, this medium can be used to prime and reduce the flexibility of canvas, cotton, linen, and more. It can also transform lightweight fabrics into freestanding forms.

Unlike rabbit skin glue, GAC 400 Fabric Stiffener is an acrylic polymer and doesn’t remain water-soluble after it’s dry, so humidity won’t make it soften, swell, or crack. Apply one or two coats directly onto raw canvas, coating both the front and back for maximum stiffness.

It’s ineffective over any other medium — it will flake off and cause delamination of subsequent paint layers. Since GAC 400 isn’t completely effective against oil penetration, the use of GAC 100 over GAC 400 is recommended for oil painters.
