• Extra heavy body and very opaque.
• A marble paste made of marble dust and 100% polymer emulsion.
• Used to build heavy textures on rigid supports and create three-dimensional forms.
• Dries to the hardness of stone. It can be sanded or carved when thoroughly dry.
• Drying too quickly causes mud cracking that is usually cosmetic, not structural.
• When mixed with acrylic colors will act as a weak tinting white, while increasing thickness and rigidity.
• Excellent substrate for acrylic paint, oil paint, oil pastel, oil bars, watercolor, graphite or dry pastel.

DIRECTIONS TO USE

• Apply with knife, brush, cake decorating tools, etc.
• To prevent shrinkage cracks (mud cracking), dry slowly by covering loosely with plastic wrap. Apply less than 1/4″ thick.
• Mix with acrylic colors to produce a colored tinted paste.
• When dry, Liquitex Acrylic Modeling Paste may be painted with acrylic or oil colors.
