## Questions & Answers

**Q: will this work on airdry clay when i make a dish?**
A: After the clay is dry, yes.

**Q: How much Gloss Varnish do i need to properly coat an 18"x24" Canvas?**
A: There is a formula for paint coverage on YouTube that specifies the number of ounces/grams needed to cover a canvas.  I'm not sure if it would answer your needs, but here it is.  Measure your canvas height and width then multiply them by each other to get the square inches.  Multiply the square inches by 0.1 to get the ounces needed to cover your canvas.  To convert to grams, multiply the ounces by 28.  This is only a rough guide as the paint consistency will affect coverage, i.e., the thinner the paint, the fewer ounces needed.

**Q: What is the effective difference between normal matte medium and the matte fluid medium?**
A: The normal matte medium will only produce a matte effect on the paint. The matte fluid medium will give the same matte effect, but will also lessen the viscosity of the acrylic paint you’re mixing in making it thinner and slightly more transparent (depending on the amount of medium added).

**Q: can it withstand high heat ?**
A: Yes  it will but I wouldn't put it outside in the direct sun.  You would need a varnish for that.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding product
*by L***N on June 12, 2025*

Great product for filling gaps, cracks, or, adding texture and dimension. Easy to work with, doesn't dry super quick, malleable. Dries hard and sturdy. Been using for years.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I made a taco sculpture.
*by C***E on April 26, 2025*

The media could not be loaded. Liquidtex has great products.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Modeling Paste for My Crafts
*by J***G on December 10, 2023*

I am a crafter, not a model builder, so I purchased this paste for use in my crafts. I have used it in embellishing my junk journal pages and was pleased with the looks of that. I squeeze a bit onto my page and then press it with a stencil. When dried, the paste can be stained, painted, or colored as I like. It is a different way to use the modeling paste. Another thing I've used it for is adding it to acrylic paint so that I can paint textured looks to a Christmas ball ornament (or a disk ornament). It adds that 3-D look to the acrylic paint when dried and it looks oh, so cool. I am a crafter who loves this modeling paste for other things than models. I cannot tell you how it works with models as I've not used it for that before.
