Golden Soft Gel Matte 236ml

Soft Gels, available in Gloss, Semi-Gloss, and Matte finishes, are part of the GOLDEN Gel Mediums range and offer artists a thinner consistency compared to Heavy Body Colors. They provide various possibilities in terms of texture building and can be mixed with acrylic colors to produce brilliant glazes.

Soft Gels are particularly useful for creating glazes. By mixing them with acrylic colors, artists can achieve transparent or translucent glazes that add depth, luminosity, and color richness to their artwork. The thinner consistency of Soft Gels allows for smooth and even application, resulting in a brilliant and translucent effect.

In addition to their role in glazing, Soft Gels can be used as a base for wet blending. They provide a smooth surface that allows for easier blending of wet acrylic colors, enabling artists to achieve seamless transitions and soft color gradations in their paintings.
