OPEN Slow-Drying Acrylics by GOLDEN, Thinner, 4 Fl Oz.
- OPEN THINNER is a water-based additive for thinning the consistency of OPEN Acrylic Colors and Mediums without altering drying time. It also maintains and adjusts the workability of OPEN colors on palettes, and can be used as a thin-bodied retarder with Heavy Body or Fluid Acrylic colors.
- Because OPEN Thinner contains no binders, it does not form a film and should only be 25% or less of mixtures with acrylic colors and mediums (one part OPEN Thinner to three or more parts paint or medium).
- LESS WASTE: The slow-drying nature allows colors to last longer on palettes and preserve color mixtures for future use
- MIXABLE with fast-drying acrylics for precise control of working time
- Made in the USA by an employee-owned company with more than 40 years of experience making paint for professional artists
Product Description
The increased working time of slow-drying acrylics expands capabilities for traditional painting techniques typically reserved for oil colors. In environments where most acrylics dry too fast, OPEN Acrylics provide a more manageable and relaxed painting experience. Because OPEN Acrylics dry slowly, covered palettes or paint kept in sealed containers stay wet and are usable for weeks, greatly reducing the amount of paint wasted and preserving color mixtures for future use. OPEN Slow-Drying Acrylics are compatible with regular (fast-drying) acrylic colors, so you can control the drying rate to suit your needs, and just like regular acrylic paints, OPEN colors clean up with soap and water.
| Relaxed Painting Experience With OPEN, there’s plenty of time to use the colors and mixes on your palette and to move paint around on the canvas. Artists can work at their own pace without fear that the paints will set up too quickly. | Easier Blending This professional-grade acrylic paint provides artists with increased working time for blending, glazing, shading, and softening techniques, making it ideal for portraiture, plein air, and printmaking. | Conserve Paint Minimize waste and maximize creativity. The slow-drying nature of OPEN allows colors to last longer on palettes and preserve color mixtures for future use. |
