About "Gamblin Oil Mediums"
  • Gamvar and Gamsol Both Gamvar and Gamsol are now available together, exclusively at Jerry's in 32 oz bottles! Paint and varnish your oil paintings with confidence! Gamsol relaxes stiff oil paints and is the best solvent for cleaning brushes and palette knives. Gamsol is odorless, non-hazardous and the safest oil solvent available! When your oil painting is completely dry and paint is firm to the touch, preserve and protect it by brushing a thin layer of semi-gloss Gamvar on top. You will instantly notice that your colors have more depth and that Gamvar is virtually odorless!
  • Alkali Refined Linseed Oil - Processed from flax seeds. This linseed is the purest and lightest industrially produced variety.

  • Cold Pressed Linseed Oil - Made from the first pressing of flax seeds without heat or chemicals of any kind.
  • Cold Wax - Made from natural white unbleached beeswax. Mix directly into colors. Cold Wax creates an ultra-thick, matte impasto. For greater shine and flexibility mix with Galkyd medium.
  • "G-Gel" - Made from alkyd resin, Galkyd Gel is a colorless oil color additive that accelerates the drying rate of oil colors and enables artists to create thick transparent paintings with a moderate sheen.
  • Galkyd Painting Medium - Alkyd based resin painting medium that thins oil paints and maintains a strong flexible paint film.

  • Galkyd Slow Drying Medium - Especially formulated to thin oil colors and give painters extended working time. To use mix equal portions of medium with oil colors to paint wet for at least a day. Since this product should not be diluted you may want to purchase the larger size.

  • Oil Painting Ground - For strong, bright foundations of oil paintings. Requires only 2 coats. Formulated from alkyd resin, titanium dioxide and barium sulfate. Stiffer than traditional gesso.
  • PVA Size - Use as a barrier size between linen or cotton canvas instead of rabbit skin glue. Remains flexible and won't yellow, shrink or swell.
  • Poppy Oil - Poppy Oil's slow drying time may be useful for painters using "wet into wet" techniques. Adding 10% by volume poppy oil slows down the drying time of Gamblin Galkyd Painting Mediums.
  • Rabbit Skin Glue - Gamblin's Rabbit Skin Glue is the traditional size for fabric support on panels. It seals porous fabric and isolates it from ground or oil paints. Stretching the canvas is easy, because the size shrinks as it dries.
  • Safflower Oil - Gamblin's Safflower Oil is a pale, slow-drying oil. Safflower oil increases flow of oil colors and slows dry time. Use sparingly or mix with an equal amount of Gamsol to create a traditional slow-drying, low-viscosity painting medium.

  • Traditional Gesso - Gamblin's Traditional Gesso is a dry mixture of rabbit skin glue, gypsum, marble dust, and titanium dioxide. Paintings on gesso are more matte because of the high absorbency of traditional gesso.
