Pébéo’s pouring medium is formulated to blend with acrylic colours to improve flow, maintain pigment clarity, and dry to a durable film so your poured compositions keep their sheen and structure without separating or fading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does Pébéo pouring medium change acrylic paint behavior?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen mixed with acrylic paint, this medium reduces viscosity and surface tension so pigments move freely across the canvas. It preserves colour intensity unlike plain water, which can dilute binders and weaken paint adhesion. The medium also helps paints level smoothly and minimizes bubble formation when mixed appropriately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTransforms heavy acrylic into a pourable consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImproves pigment transparency and vibrancy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces surface tension for cleaner cells and flow effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMixes easily without introducing excessive bubbles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it as a protective finish on finished artwork?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — Pébéo pouring medium doubles as a clear topcoat that dries to a glossy, protective film. Applied over cured acrylics, it shields the surface from dust and minor abrasion while maintaining tonal depth and shine. For larger works or outdoor exposure, pair it with a purpose-made varnish designed for UV and weather resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDries clear with a high-gloss sheen\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProvides a protective layer that preserves paint integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable as a final coat for indoor artworks and displays\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCan be layered thinly to build gloss without clouding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat mixing ratios and tips give reliable pour results?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMixing ratios depend on the brand and thickness of the paint, but a common starting point is 1:1 medium to paint by volume and then adjust until you reach a honey-like pour consistency. Stir gently to avoid bubbles, strain if needed, and test on a small surface before committing to a large canvas. Use silicone sparingly if you want pronounced cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStart with equal parts medium and paint, then thin as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStir slowly and avoid whipping air into the mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStrain mixtures for ultra-smooth pours\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExperiment on scraps to dial in cell formation and flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it work with my existing acrylic paints and brands?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePébéo pouring medium is formulated to blend well with Pébéo Studio Acrylics and Mat Pub ranges, and it also performs with many other professional acrylic paints. Because formulations vary, test compatibility on a sample to ensure adhesion and finish meet your expectations.
