What is the quantity of the U.S. Art Supply Impasto Clear Gel Acrylic Medium?

The quantity of the acrylic medium is 500ml.

Can the medium be used as an adhesive?

Yes, the material can be used as a strong adhesive for bonding heavy objects or for sand and other textural additives.

Is the medium safe to use?

Yes, the acrylic medium is a non-toxic material.

Can this be used for ceramics?

Depending on what you mean, depends on the answer. If you are using it for crafts to glue pieces of finished ceramics to something or to adhere as in mixed media collage or assemblage, then yes. If your question is to use for creating ceramics with a kiln, I have no idea. But I would doubt it

Why does one question about it being matte says no, the other info says yes..which one is it?

It may depend on the application. I use it daily. I find it is between matte and gloss. more of a satin. I use it in mixed media. mostly to adhere beads and gears etc

How clear does this dry in thicker spots?

In my experience, it dries pretty clear. It will have more texture in the thicker spots and you can see brush strokes if you're using a brush to apply it.

Is this the same a matte gel medium?

Matte gel medium doesn't have a shine. Regular medium has a glossy look.

Will this adhere to dried oil paint? Can it be painted on with oil paint?

I’ve used acrylic paint and covered with polyurethane and it worked great.

Can you varnish over it once dried?

I haven’t tried lacquer, but I used epoxy resin on top of acrylic paintings. It did fine and has lasted for over 3 years - inside.

Can I use this to seal an acrylic painting? Such as when I’m done with a painting and want to seal it to last? Thanks

I used epoxy resin & it worked great

Could I mix with glow in dark powder and paint my phone case? Would this adhere to a smooth plastic?

Of course you can do it but first step sand your phone case a little bit to help the paste to glue to the plastic.

Does this slow down drying time?

I use it as glue for mixed media projects on canvas. I thought it dried fairly quickly, especially with a heat gun or hair dryer. I don't seal the painting with it so I am not sure about exact dry time.

U.S. Art Supply Impasto Clear Gel Acrylic Medium, 500ml Tub

The U.S. Art Supply Impasto Clear Gel Acrylic Medium is a versatile and easy-to-use product that is perfect for any artist. The medium has good viscosity and translucency, making it easy to mix with other pigments and acrylics. The gel can also take on other textures when desired, making it perfect for those who want to add an extra dimension to their art projects. The medium is thick and pasty, which makes it easy to blend and apply. You can mix it with a little bit of acrylic paint to create a unique color or use it on its own. The clear gel medium dries pretty clear, but it will have more texture in thicker spots and you may see brush strokes if you're using a brush to apply it. One of the great things about this product is that it can be used for a variety of purposes. If you're making crafts or doing mixed media work, the gel can be used to glue pieces of finished ceramics or other materials together. It can even be used as the medium for a stencil on furniture. However, if you're creating ceramics with a kiln, it's not recommended that you use this medium. Overall, the U.S. Art Supply Impasto Clear Gel Acrylic Medium is a great product that does exactly what you'd expect. It's versatile, easy to use, and perfect for any artist who wants to add a little texture or dimension to their projects.
