i am not using an airbrush, but i need thin non-glossy glazes. would this work? thanks

I know this is late,but I use Golden Airbrush medium to thin my paint for glazes.

Can this be used to thin (Vallejo) Acrylic-Polyurethane liquid primers (for miniatures)?

I don't know. From what I hear you can use it to thin just about any acrylic-based paint. However, not sure how the polyurethane in the primer would react. I think a good test would be to mix it up and see. Start with the primer in a mixing cup (couple of drops), then add the airbrush medium a drop at a time (mixing each time and checking consistency, clumping, etc). If you get a good mix without clumps and about the consistency of low-fat milk, you should be able to apply through an airbrush. I would recommend testing on a test plate to see how it adheres before using it on your finish piece! Good Luck.

*For those who used both products*, please: Is this different different from pouring effect medium?

The "Pouring effect medium" has more control, but the flow aid is mainly used for completely liquefying the paint, while keeping consistent color I have used this with airbrush art, and mixing effects with other Liquitex/other brand acrylic mediums. On a more casual, non-air-brush point of view: This can totally thin paint, but there is other stuff out there, that will suit your needs. BONUS** This works wonders if you 1. need a shorter drying time OR 2. Have lesser quality acrylic in old tubes and want to turn out well.

I have createx airbrush paint for nail art. The problem is it air comes out but no paint. Ive cleaned the needle still no paint spray.

The number of reasons why your air brush is not working is huge. I would try and verify that you can shoot water through the air brush, if you can, the you can fiddle with air pressure, or thin the paint, or clean the brush, or go to a larger tip size.

Tolles Produkt

Ich fand das Malen mit Acrylfarben bisher hinsichtlich der Trocknungszeiten nachteilig. Nachdem ich von Liquitex Trocknungsverzögerer für Acrylfarben gehört habe, war ich zunächst etwas skeptisch - habe mir das Gel aber trotzdem bestellt, weil ich es unbedingt ausprobieren wollte. --> und war sehr positiv überrascht!!! Ich habe mehrere Farben auf die Palette geholt und überall ein paar Tropfen vom Gel untergemischt. Zur Eigenschaft Transparenz konnte ich keine Änderung bei der Acrylfarbe feststellen. Ich habe ca. 2 Stunden gezeichnet und dann eine Pause von ca. 2 Stunden eingelegt. Ich war überrascht, dass ich anschließend noch mit der Farbe weiterzeichnen konnte. Von mir daher eine klare Kaufempfehlung. Ich würde das Gel immer wieder bestellen :-)
