Tri Art Liquid Glass Pouring Medium has been created to accept colour beautifully, keeping them as bright as possible while drying to an extremely hard, clear, high-gloss finish. It is great for use in high-quality pour paintings, as it lets the acrylic flow, levels perfectly and maintains an even suspension.
Liquid Glass can also be used as a top coat. It has complete UV stability and will not yellow over time. Artists should ensure that the paint underneath has fully cured before applying a layer of Liquid Glass. By pouring liquid glass before the acrylics underneath have fully cured, it can cause bubbling within the Liquid Glass as the layers underneath try to cure and release volatiles. We recommend waiting 72 hours for it to cure.
