Acrylic Gouache
Acrylic gouache is a fluid, matte acrylic paint. It is not rewettable, dries to a smooth velvety matte finish, and is fast drying. Specialist colors available including metallic, luminescent, and iridescent shades.
What is the difference between acrylic paint, acrylic gouache, and traditional gouache?
Acrylic paint, acrylic gouache, and traditional gouache each have unique properties.
Acrylic paint is versatile and fast-drying, often leaving a glossy finish. Acrylic gouache combines features of acrylic paint and traditional gouache, providing the matte finish of gouache while remaining waterproof once dry.
Traditional gouache, on the other hand, offers a smooth, matte finish and can be reactivated with water, like watercolor. The primary differences lie in finish, water resistance, and reactivation potential.
