Gamblin Solvent-Free Fluid Oil Painting Medium | Safflower Oil
Gamblin Solvent-Free Fluid – Safflower Oil-Based Painting Medium
Enhance your oil painting process with Gamblin Solvent-Free Fluid, a safflower oil-based medium designed to extend oil colours and moderate drying time without the use of traditional solvents. Offering an alternative to Galkyd Lite, this fluid medium provides the feel of painting with oils while helping your colours dry faster than they would on their own.
With a mild vegetable oil aroma, Gamblin Solvent-Free Fluid is an option for artists who prefer to avoid solvent-based painting mediums in their studio practice. Its fluid consistency makes it easy to incorporate into oil colours, helping you adjust the handling and working properties of your paint.
