Discover the paint that started the acrylic revolution. Liquitex Soft Body Acrylic—the world’s first water-based artist acrylic invented in 1955—continues to set the standard for fluid, professional-grade colour. This low-viscosity formula delivers maximum pigment clarity, exceptional vibrancy, and a smooth, flowing consistency straight from the bottle.
Soft Body is not diluted Heavy Body—it is a concentrated, purpose-built formulation with the same high pigment load, but engineered for fluid application without sacrificing strength or saturation. Perfect for painting, glazing, staining, pouring, detail work, printing, and large-surface coverage.
This Mixing Set provides three primaries plus essential blacks/whites/greens, letting you create an infinite palette of blends, tints, and tones.
