Elevate your acrylic work with GOLDEN Clear Tar Gel

GOLDEN Clear Tar Gel is a colorless, resinous medium whose syrupy, stringy consistency invites tactile exploration on canvas and other surfaces. Its distinctive rheology lets you pour, drizzle, or lay down long, draped strands that catch light and add subtle depth to color and form. When blended with GOLDEN acrylic paints, it remains compatible, expanding your palette while preserving the integrity of each pigment.

Key qualities at a glance

  • Thick, resinous consistency that can be spread or drizzled for dramatic line work or soft textures
  • Improves flow and leveling, making glazing smoother, colors easier to extend, and translucency more appealing
  • RANGE OF CONSISTENCY: use to glaze, extend paints, build texture, adjust sheen, and even act as an adhesive for collage
  • Excellent flexibility with chemical, water, and UV resistance when dry
  • Made in the USA by an employee-owned company with over 40 years of experience making paint for professional artists

Practical techniques for studio and atelier

  • Drizzle or pour to create fine lines and controlled trails on painted surfaces
  • Mix with GOLDEN acrylics to expand color relationships, translucency, and depth
  • Build texture or glaze multiple layers for luminous, layered effects
  • Use as a flexible adhesive for collage or mixed-media projects

Sizes and availability

GOLDEN Clear Tar Gel is offered in 8 oz, 16 oz, and 32 oz jars, providing options for both small studies and larger works. Its colorless nature respects your color decisions while adding a distinctive texture and gloss

Tips for best results

  • Start with small amounts to test glaze behavior; gradually increase to build texture or line drama
  • Pair with GOLDEN acrylic paints to extend color ranges, adjust sheen, and achieve translucent effects
  • Experiment with pouring, drizzling, and scraping to reveal light-catching passages and depth

Note: Real-world results vary with technique and pigment; GOLDEN Clear Tar Gel is a versatile tool that opens new pathways for glazing, texture, and line work.
