Review on ๐ŸŽจ Sargent Art Pouring Acrylic Medium, 128 oz: Enhance Your Art with Professional Pouring Medium! by Summer Hendricks

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Dry out sticky stuff!

I was about to write a positive review about it but I'm glad I waited. I love this potting medium - it's smooth and blends easily with paint, whether it's craft paint (Decoart, Folk Art, etc.) or professional paint (Liquitex Basics, Amsterdam). She changed the color of my paint in the mug. BUT the paint dried to the original color once on my canvas. So let it darken the color a bit while I pour. As long as it dries as expected, everything is fine. The problem I have with this filling medium is that it dries out sticky. I poured some pieces 22 days ago and they are still sticky. STILL. BRIGHT. They stick together. They stick to the cups I set out to dry the canvases. They stick to my counters. They stick together. They stick to everything! And I live in a very dry climate - I don't want to see how this would perform in a wetter environment. I don't know how it will behave after pouring the top layer of resin. I'm guessing stickiness doesn't matter, but not everyone coats their craft with resin. This is a problem if you use this. I want everyone to be successful in their exploits. I want everyone to use products that help them. For this reason I cannot recommend it. I would give it up and move on to a different pouring medium.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • so far so good
