Liquitex Flow Aid increases the flow of your colour/mediums while minimizing brush strokes. This product is desgned to reduce surface tension improving flow and lowering the viscosity of the product is is being mixed with. Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products.

*Do not use Flow Aid undiluted as it results in poor acrylic adhesion, cracking, tackiness and water sensitivity.

How to use:

  • First dilute your concentrated Flow Aid with water - 1 part Flow Aid to 20 parts water - distilled water will give the best results. Use 1 part Flow Aid to 10 parts water if you want a more concentrated effect
  • Add up to 25% of diluted Flow Aid to your color/medium and stir slowly to avoid foaming. If it does foam, leave it to sit while the foam disappears
  • If applying to an absorbent surface, your colour/medium will sink in like a stain or dye; if using on a non-absorbent surface your colour/medium will be more fluid and take longer to dry
  • As this is an additive – with no acrylic binders - do not add more than 25% to your colour/medium and do not mix with other additives. This can cause excessive shrinkage, cracking and the acrylic film to break down
  • Do not shake or stir too vigorously as foam will form
