Golden Heavy Body Acrylic Paint is the original line of Golden Artist Acrylic Colour, known for its exceptionally smooth, thick buttery consistency. These colours offer excellent permanency and lightfastness. There are no fillers, extenders, opacifiers, toners, or dyes added.
Each Golden Heavy Body colour is formulated differently depending on the nature of the pigment. Colours that tolerate high pigment loads dry to a more opaque, matt finish. Colours that are more reactive and do not accept high pigment loading dry to a glossy finish and tend to be more transparent. Golden Heavy Body Acrylics contain no additives, such as matting agents, therefore the gloss of each colour will reflect the characteristics of each pigment in their purest form.
Please note, Golden place a high priority on the health and safety of the artists' studio and materials. They feel the artists should be aware of any potential hazards so Golden far surpass the required quantity of health and safety advice on their labels. Their products are not more dangerous, just more accurately labelled.
