Super Heavy Body is a line of highly pigmented, clean, brilliant colors with superior shape retention and unique “gutsy” handling, which is a new innovative product introduced to the Liquitex range in early 2004. Excellent for ‘textural’ and ‘sculptural’ applications with very low shrinkage from wet-to-dry. Highly pigmented, producing clean color mixing with outstanding clarity and brilliance. Formulated to dry within a uniform satin sheen range. This enhances visual clarity of the finished painting, provides a non-plastic look and eliminates glare. Little or no wet-to-dry value shift allows for more accurate color mixing. Increased open time for easier blending.
