Jo Sonja's Flow Medium 250ml

Jo Sonja Flow Medium is added to Jo Sonja Matte Flow Acrylic and Background Colours and other Jo Sonja Mediums for thinning as needed for paint application or various techniques such as fine detail or linework and airbrushing. Add to colours when a smooth basecoat is required. Flow Medium will extend the drying time of the paint.

Note: The addition of water to thin Jo Sonja Artists’ Colours or Jo Sonja Background Colours may over-dilute the paint causing poor coverage and adhesion to some surfaces.
