Oleoresgel is a firm thixotropic gel made with bodied linseed oil, alkyd resin and fumed silica. Add to thicken colors for creating impasto effects that do not sink. Contains no driers, so it is safe to use in oil painting without worry of cracking.
Mix directly into your paint right on the palette.
To make your own paint with Oleoresgel, add directly to pigment powder until a stiff paste is obtained (almost the consistency of putty). Grind the paste with a muller on a flat surface before storing in collapsible tube. Some of its thixotropic property will be temporarily lost when grinding Oleoresgel with a muller, but should be restored when allowed to stand.
