"do you mean a medium that helps paint to flow, i.e. when doing
decorative paint strokes?

Not sure but I don't think that's it.
What I'm looking for is a substance that takes pigments or acrylic colours, and
leaves definite marks and peaks on the surface. It's milky when wet, but is
transparent when dry. Liquitex make several types of Gel Mediums - these dry
transparent with a matt or shiney finish.

Other Liquitex Gel Mediums have material suspended in the Gel i.e. fibres, glass
beads,sand etc. Always keen to save a penny or two, I was interested to see if
anyone had found a substitute for the basic Gel.... either matt or shiney
finish.
