Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel Medium 150ml

What is Solvent-Free Gel Medium?
Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel Medium is an alkyd-based medium made with safflower oil and alkyd resin, designed to increase flow, transparency, and gloss in oil colours while maintaining the shape and texture of your brushstrokes. Unlike other alkyd gels, it contains no Gamsol, making it a solvent-free option for cleaner, safer painting.

Why Artists Use Solvent-Free Gel

• Improves paint flow and transparency without thinning

• Enhances gloss and highlights brushwork texture

• Moderate drying time of 3–4 days when used in recommended amounts

• Maintains the integrity of brushmarks and impasto details

Usage Recommendations

• Use up to 25% Solvent-Free Gel in mixture with oil paints— a small amount goes a long way.

• Avoid overuse, as excessive amounts can extend drying time, cause wrinkling, or increase yellowing in paint layers.
