GOLDEN PRO Sheer Glazing Medium
PGZ-12
Regular price $22.29Thinner glazing medium for a sheer finish.
GOLDEN PRO Sheer glazing medium provides the extended dry-time of traditional oil mediums without compromising strength or transparency. Dries to a satin finish. Tint with water-compatible colors like DISPERSIONS, or, for the longest open time, use with Slow-dry FLUID COLORS . Use this ultra-thin glazing medium in specialized glazing techniques such as faux marble and woodgraining. Use the Glazing medium glaze for large-scale projects. Working time is typically 15-45 minutes depending on technique and substrate. For a sheen that is more matte, mix with MATTING ADDITIVE.
Most of our large and fine hair brushes are hand-set and made with different hairs that are tapped in a small copper cylinder before being glued into the ferrule. This is why some of the hairs are not properly affixed to the ferrule, so the brush will shed some hair the first few times you will use it.
Thick hair: examples are; badger, hog (china bristle), horse hair
Fine hair: examples are sable; squirrel, goat, skunk (fine, thin short hair)
Synthetic Fiber: examples are; taklon, samina, bordeaux, synthetic bristle
To minimize brush shedding, you should:
All acrylic glazes contain some sort of ammonia which attacks the structure of the natural hair. Therefore, brush maintenance and thorough repetitive cleaning as described in step 1, 2, & 3 is imperative to protect and extend the life of your brush.
Applying a few drops of ‘leave in’ conditioner is also a good idea if you’re not going to be using your brush for some time.
Dried Paint: If some acrylic glaze becomes hardened on the brush, start by removing the heaviest part with denatured alcohol then rinse with water and coat the hairs with Murphy’s Oil Soap and leave for several hours. Apply the steps again from 1, 2, & 3 so the paint will brush out easily and leave your brush as good as new. Be careful as soap left too long in the natural hair will deteriorate the flexibility of the hair.
