Holbein Duo Aqua Oil Mediums were designed specifically for use with Holbein’s Duo Aqua Oil Colors. They can be used to enhance transparency or translucency, create a gloss or matte finish, accelerate drying time, or aid brushability and flow. All of the Holbein Duo Aqua Oil Mediums may be thinned with water and dry to a clear finish.

Holbein Oil Mediums

The consistency of oil paint can be enhanced and altered with oil painting mediums. It has been said that Oil Colors are the actors on the stage, whilst the Painting Oils, Varnishes, and Mediums are the Directors. The finished production is the combination of the Oil Colors brilliantly acting their parts on the surface, directed by the Painting Oils, Varnishes, and Mediums from behind the scenes. Never think of Painting Oils, Varnishes, and Mediums just as thinners for oil color; they are more than that. These directors can control the entire painting technique in your production. Holbein uses the very finest ingredients to produce a variety of widely acclaimed Painting Oils, Varnishes, and Mediums.
