Liquitex Professional Flow Aid, 118 Ml

I use this for miniature painting. I have decanted it into a smaller dropper bottle for easier use, but I think this one bottle will last a lifetime. There's enough that I've got some extra dropper bottles to give to friends. It helps reduce visible brush strokes and is great for techniques like wet blending.

Excellent stuff!! Makes the paint go on so much smoother, and last longer too

If you use acrylic paint, this is definitely the go to, to thin it out a bit. Doesn’t change the colour and keeps the paint nice and smooth. Excellent.

It is exactly what it says it is. Worked perfectly

Cant fault the product - I am using it to create my own custom washes from acrylic paints. The price is a bit painful though.

Game changer for paint by numbers paints, last for AGES

I have some acrylic paints that are a little thick for my needs and even adding water didn’t bring them to the right consistency and colour ( if you water down acrylic paints it can lose depth of colour and can go lumpy) I needed a flow aid and having tried other products in this range decided to go for this one. It’s really excellent. Now it clearly states on the bottle that this should be watered down at a ratio of 20 parts water to 1 part flow aid. So I measured the water and added the flow aid with a syringe. I then use this little bit with a brush to rehydrate my paints…. Adding it a bit at a time using a brush means you get the consistency you want. You get an idea from my video…although it was tricky filming one handed:-). I tend not to add it to the paint tub as it’s difficult to judge the amount I need and it’s an expensive way of doing it. I only use what I need by rehydrating as I go along. Because it should be watered down it actually goes a long way and I’ve used very little so far. So if used correctly you actually end up with 20 times volume the size of this bottle. I’m really impressed with this and it’s certainly made my painting experience much easier and the colours at the end are not diminished in any way. Good value for money and I will definitely be ordering this again.
