Two very special gels offered by Golden
are Glass Bead Gel and Clear Granular Gel.
Both gels can be used to create luminous effects
because they are a suspension of clear particles in clear gel.
The particles in Clear Granular Gel are hard, clear bits of acrylic plastic.
They vary in shape and are about the size and consistency of course sea salt.
Glass bead gel contains actual glass beads,
about the size and consistency of poppy seeds.
The clear gel used as a base for both of these products is
white when wet, but dries clear.
Glass beads and clear acrylic granules catch light and create texture at the same time.
While the beads and granules are not absorbent,
the acrylic gel coating them can be tinted and painted over.
Combinations of Glass Bead Gel and Clear Granular Gel with Golden Iridescent and Interference
colors,
can heighten depth and reflective effects.
And, as with the other Golden gels and pastes, they are compatible with all Golden acrylic
colors.
As always, Golden’s Technical Support Team is available to answer any questions you have.
Thanks for watching.
