Liquitex - Airbrush Medium

Attributes
. Low viscosity.
. Pre-mixed blend of acrylic polymer emulsion, water, retarder and Flow-AidTM.
. Ready to use pre-filtered and pre-reduced to the proper consistency for airbrush technique. Add as much or as little as desired.
. Easily thins acrylic or any water-soluble paints to a sprayable consistency.
. Decreases airbrush clogging and paint build-up around tip during spraying.
. Allows thinned acrylic paint to be sprayed efficiently and retain paint film integrity.
. Liquitex Airbrush Medium mixes easily with all Liquitex Medium Viscosity Concentrated Artist Colors to produce airbrush paint with the proper viscosity for airbrushing. It contains specific additives designed to retard drying time, improve the flow of acrylic paint through an airbrush, decreasing airbrush clogging and paint build-up around the airbrush tip.
. Can be mixed with Liquitex High Viscosity Artist Colors. . Liquitex Iridescent and Interference colors contain mica flakes that may require a larger airbrush nozzle and greater air pressure for consistent spraying.
. Can be mixed with all Liquitex paint, mediums and gesso.

Directions

. Mix Airbrush Medium into Medium Viscosity Concentrated Artist Color. No need to strain.
. Mix Airbrush Medium into High Viscosity Artist Color. Strain to remove any particles of undissolved color.
. Start by mixing 50% Airbrush Medium to color. Mix thoroughly. Add more Airbrush Medium as necessary to facilitate flow through the airbrush. Each color may require a different percentage of Airbrush Medium to color, due to variation in color pigment size and concentration of pigment.
. Airbrush nozzle size and spraying pressure (PSI) will determine Airbrush Medium/paint mixture. Larger nozzles allow for greater amounts of paint in the mixture. . Keep airbrush wet during use. Do not allow paint to dry in airbrush.
. Clean airbrush with water, water/ammonia mixture, airbrush cleaner or alcohol.
. Refer to Techniques: Airbrushing
