Pouring Mediums for Smooth, Crack-Free Acrylic Flow Techniques

Liquitex Pouring Mediums are specially formulated to create flowing applications of acrylic color—producing smooth, even puddles, sheets, and drips without cracking, crazing, or trapping bubbles. Designed to retain a consistent, glossy finish, the original Pouring Medium dries to a flexible, non-yellowing film that preserves the high gloss and wet look of freshly poured paint. Iridescent Pouring Medium adds a shimmering, pearlescent sheen to the surface, while Matte Pouring Medium provides a non-reflective finish ideal for photographing artwork before varnishing.

Each variant has a fluid texture that mixes easily with Liquitex Soft Body Acrylics or Acrylic Inks, maintaining color strength and flow without increasing transparency. These mediums are suitable for “dirty pours,” puddling, or layering techniques on a variety of surfaces like canvas or wood panels. Whether you’re a student experimenting with fluid art or a professional creating high-impact visuals, Liquitex Pouring Mediums deliver clean, flexible, and visually stunning results.
