All Liquitex products are formulated by a unique team of chemists and artists. This combination allows us to make the most versatile ranges of intense, highly-loaded, permanent colors possible. Liquitex is the only acrylic paint brand to offer four uniquely different ranges of professional acrylic color to suit the needs of the artist. That in mind, range-specific handling characteristics are established so that each Liquitex paint feels just right – never too sticky or slippery. The low-odor acrylic resin base represents the latest in acrylic resin technology, offering increased open time and producing colors of great clarity. The paint films are highly flexible, durable, non-yellowing, UV resistant, water-resistant, and pH neutral when dry. All Liquitex Professional Colors can be intermixed with each other and Liquitex Mediums. Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Acrylic Paint, previously referred to as High Viscosity, has a thick consistency for traditional art techniques using brushes or knives as well as for experimental mixed media collage and printmaking applications. Impasto (thick) applications retain crisp brush stroke and knife marks. Good surface drag provides excellent handling and blending characteristics with increased open-working time. High pigment load produces rich brilliant permanent color. Visit our Liquitex Storefront for full product assortment. Review: Good quality of paint - Great paint consistency, good value for your money. Got it in time to finish my painting. Will buy again when needed. Works perfectly on metal, wood, canvas or glass! Review: Excellent paint with thicker texture to show off your brushstrokes -- or not - I'm a professional artist & editorial cartoonist with over 50 years of experience with acrylic paint, and I use this stuff all the time when I'm working on canvas or wood panels. I use it with brushes, painting knives (don't get me started on the difference between a painting knife and a palette knife), little pieces of cut-up credit cards, and my fingers, and always get great results. Super good for impasto work. You can also thin it way down and use it like watercolor (you can't do the same tricks you do with watercolor, but it works wonderfully on paper and if you mess up a spot you can just paint over it!!). It's thick enough that you can scratch lines into it, and embed small thing in it. (Sand is fun for texture, and of course if you paint outdoors you will probably have embedded gnats). I can mix darn near any color I want with just the primary colors plus black and white, but there are lots of other fun colors. At the moment I'm playing with "Persian Red", which is really a very pretty pinky-peachy shade. Anyway, it's good stuff. ## Features - PURE PIGMENTS - Heavy Body Acrylic is known for its rich, permanent color. Our chemists use the latest basket bead-mill technology to bring out the best in every pigment. Tiny reinforced ceramic beads give fine dispersion, great color development, strength and brightness. - HIGH VISCOSITY - This is our highest viscosity paint. Good surface drag gives excellent handling and blending characteristics, with increased open-working time. Never too slippery, or too sticky. Heavy Body Acrylic delivers intense color in the ideal consistency for a range of techniques. - VERSATILE - The low-odor acrylic resin base in Heavy Body represents the latest in acrylic resin technology, giving you increased open time and colors of great clarity and vibrancy, with minimal wet-to-dry shift. The paint film is highly flexible, durable, non-yellowing, UV-resistant and water-resistant when dry. - NON-CRACKING - A flexible, crack-free result. Even when you go in thick. Impasto and 3D applications dry without fracturing due to advanced acrylic technology which brings flexibility to the paint film. Giving you a durable, noncracking finish. - ARCHIVAL QUALITY - On a client’s wall. In a gallery. Your work needs to stay as you intended. The pigments in Heavy Body are lightfast. This means your work will have the greatest archival permanence possible – at least 50 years+ in gallery conditions – with no color shifting or fading, to stay vibrant and true. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0009RNUMY | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #392 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #18 in Art Paints | | Brand | Liquitex | | Color | Iridescent Bright Silver | | Coverage | Fine art | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (9,778) | | Date First Available | May 24, 2005 | | Finish | Satin | | Finish Type | Satin | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00094376921694 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Is Waterproof | False | | Item Form | Solid | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Volume | 59 Milliliters | | Item Weight | 2.4 ounces | | Item model number | 1045236 | | Manufacturer | ColArt Americas | | Material | Acrylic | | Model Name | Professional Heavy Body | | Number Of Pieces | 1 | | Package Information | Tube | | Paint Type | Acrylic | | Part Number | 1045236 | | Product Dimensions | 5.51 x 1.77 x 1.18 inches | | Size | 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Feature | UV Resistant | | Special Features | UV Resistant | | Specific Uses For Product | Art Painting | | Style | 2-oz Tube | | Surface Recommendation | Ceramic | | UPC | 094376921694 | | Unit Count | 2.0 Fluid Ounces | | Volume | 59 Milliliters | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Liquitex - **Color:** Iridescent Bright Silver - **Finish Type:** Satin - **Item Volume:** 59 Milliliters - **Paint Type:** Acrylic - **Size:** 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - **Special Feature:** UV Resistant - **Specific Uses For Product:** Art Painting - **Surface Recommendation:** Ceramic - **Unit Count:** 2.0 Fluid Ounces ## Images ![Professional Heavy Body Acrylic Paint, 2-oz (59ml) Tube, Iridescent Bright Silver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61NdtVwandL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality of paint *by K***N on November 1, 2025* Great paint consistency, good value for your money.
