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.

Add a little bling to your projects

"I can see the potential of the Liquitex Gold Metallic Medium, used in many applications such as, mixed media, collage, creative journalling, and abstract or subjective painting. These are the art projects I enjoy doing. I mixed the Gold Metallic Medium with other solid color Liquitex soft body paints, creating an irredescent quality. I enjoyed using this product and look forward to using it in more of my art projects."

First Time User

"To be quite honest, I've never used acrylic paint before. The only experience I had with paint was gouache paint and watercolor paint. I had to look up how to use it. Turns out, it's slightly not different. I like how Liquitex Gold Metallic Medium can be layered on top of other colors and give it a lovely shine. The size of the bottle is quite welcoming. With its size, I can make all of my artwork shine. Once this runs out, I'll most certainly purchase some more for future art."

— CorvixEyes (5/5)

Beautiful color

"It's tough to find good metallic paint aside from (spray paint), so I was super happy to receive this product. Of course it's not gold chrome, but it is still a beautiful gold metallic. The coverage was great and the paint was smooth. I'm saving the rest of my bottle to do a large painting on canvas for my home. I'd definitely recommend buying this paint."

— MelLaw (5/5)

Excellent!

"Liquitex Professional Acrylic Mediums Gold Metallic adds fantastic gold effects to your soft body acrylic paints. Its very simple to use, you just mix it with the color you want to add the metallic effect to. I practiced a little bit before I started my project and I found that Liquitex gave the greatest graphics I had ever used. The metallic color was very bright gold and paired and mixed perfectly with the Liquitex Soft Body Acrylics."
