I’m doing a beach scene
"I’m doing a beach scene for my sisters housewarming gift and this is the perfect texture for the sand. I also used it on so large rocks with a palette knife and loved it."
Professional Mediums
Natural Sand
Build flexible, medium-grade sandy texture with this thick acrylic effects gel.
*The formula for Natural Sand has been updated, resulting in a minimal shift in appearance, while retaining the same working properties. The new paste will appear to have a slight grey color, in both wet and dry state, with slightly finer grain size compared to the previous formula. A variance in grain size is part of the normal properties of the product.

Lightfastness | How long will it resist fading?
- Each pigment is rated on scale by the American Society for Testing & Materials (ASTM). Liquitex paints are all rated ASTM I (excellent) or II (very good) and considered permanent and lightfast for 50-100+ years in gallery conditions. Our metallic and fluorescent colors are naturally less lightfast.
Opacity/Transparency | We communicate opacity/transparency clearly on our packaging based on three categories:
- Opaque: these colors do not allow light to pass through the color layer and offer the best coverage or hiding power.
- Semi-opaque: these allow for some light to pass through the color layer and sit between opaque and transparent colors
- Transparent: these colors offer the least coverage and allow light to pass through the color layer to the surface below.
- Series:
Pigments come from a variety of sources and have different prices according to their rarity, processing and milling costs. We group our colors into a 'series' pricing structure according to how much each one takes to make. Series 1 colors contain the most inexpensive pigments, while Series 4 and 5 color contain the most expensive pigments.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Other creatives have asked us...
What's the difference between Natural and Resin Sand mediums?
Two things: the particles - Resin Sand is actually tiny acrylic granules, while Natural Sand contains real sand. And the result - Resin Sand gives a coarser dry finish.
A friend has been adding sand to her acrylic paint to create texture - is this a good idea?
Avoid adding sand to acrylic paint. It can introduce contaminants affecting your work's aging. Use Natural Sand or Resin Sand mediums for texture.
