Paints can be expensive this helps so much!"'
Great for acrylic paints that start to harden while you are painting it makes your paints more supple to continue your art very good value for money prevents paint waste. Its sheer so colours stay exactly the same. Would buy again.

Golden Retarder
This product is easy to use and keeps the paints wet enough to blend in other colours more easily. Really helps making clouds more realistic. I only have to use a small amount, but slightly more is required with a thicker acrylic paint. It enhances the painting, but only need to use it for specific areas where paint would otherwise dry out too quick. Eg portrait paintings benefit, sky etc. Would recommend as bottle is a decent size and it's a good product to have.

It works
A drop well mixed in with colours on a staywet pallet works wonders. No more skin forming in the summer months.

Someone said apply with eye dropper I would agree, this bottle will last a life time but with practice you will be able to paint like Bob Ross with acrylics, It dose what it says.

It didn't work. Acrylic was no more pliable than not using it. Waste of money.

CLEAR gel and love that for mixing in. Now always mix a couple drops into premixed colors I’ve made and put in my 1oz sealed containers to insure continuous use. More control than other mediums of a like kind to keep paint nice and useable. Also wonderful for your palette. When working in sun and other studio lights my acrylics last much longer. Blending and mixing acrylics down to small areas now stay usable much longer. Found benefits in both wet and regular palettes. As I prefer the standard now thanks to Golden Retarder no longer loose or end up wasting my paint.

I really like this product! Just a drop or two gives my acrylic paints a smooth feel and makes mixtures on the palette last longer when I come back to them. On the canvas, it extends the time I can work with blending my paints allowing me to achieve the feel of oil painting. It also helps rejuvenate paint that has gotten a bit dried out in the tube and makes them smooth and workable again. Just make sure you don’t use too much!
