| Used straight from the tube and applied to a black surface, Interference Mediums produce a shimmering, self-colored metallic transparent lustre. The most dramatic effects are on black where color shows with electric intensity. The Interference Mediums can be mixed with other acrylic colors. The effect of mixing Interference Mediums with color is to produce a surface which changes depending upon the angle at which the light strikes. The medium changes the color hue as well as the surface characteristics of the paint, making paler translucent tints of the pure color. The effect of Interference Mediums does not work well off light or white surfaces, and they are most suited to craft, decorative art and educational usage. |
