LIQUITEX MODELING PASTE - A thick acrylic putty for creating texture on rigid supports and to make 3D forms.

Use with Acrylic paints & mediums on non-oily, absorbent surfaces.

For techniques including 3D modelling, sculptural applications, Mixed media and Paper-Mache. 

Dries to a hard 'stone-like' opaque white matte finish that can be sanded or carved.

Use on its own, mixed with colour, or painted once dry.

Acrylics, oils, watercolours, graphite or dry pastels can be applied once dry.

Can be handled like clay

Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality

HOW TO USE:

• Fully intermixable with acrylic paints

• Mix with acrylic colour to make a tinted paste

• Use on non-flexible supports only

• Apply with knife or tool

• For sculptural texture, build up in thin layers, allowing each to dry

• Dry slowly by covering loosely with plastic wrap to avoid shrinkage cracks

• Drying too quickly will cause cosmetic (not structural) cracks

• If cracks appear, allow to dry and fill in with another thin layer of paste

• Ensure it's completely dry before sanding or carving

• Overpaint once dry with acrylics or most other media

• Do not mix with any non-acrylic compatible media

• Do not use on flexible supports unless mixed with another medium
