What's the difference between Basics and Professional paints?

Liquitex Basics and Professional paints differ in pigment load, consistency choices, and range of colors. Liquitex Basics paints strike a balance between affordability or quality, being more economical due to the lower pigment content.

Are Basics paints different opacities, like your Professional range?

Liquitex Basics paints also have different opacity levels. Check the label for the square symbol: a black square means opaque, an empty square means transparent, and a half-filled square means semi-opaque (⬕)

Can I get different consistency of Liquitex Basics paint?

Liquitex Basics paints maintain a consistent medium viscosity across all colors for versatility. We also offer Basics Acrylic Fluid for a more fluid viscosity, and Mediums which adapt the character of the paint, changing viscosity and texture.

Why would I use Liquitex Basics Acrylic Fluid product in addittion to Liquitex Basics Acrylic

Liquitex Basics Acrylic Fluid offers artists a paint that is more fluid and flowing. This viscosity can be beneficial when covering large surfaces quickly, as the fluid nature allows it to spread evenly without leaving visible brushstrokes.
