GOLDEN HEAVY BODY ACRYLIC – NAPHTHOL RED MEDIUM – 2 OZ

❤️🎨 Rich, deep, and powerfully pigmented, GOLDEN Heavy Body Acrylic Naphthol Red Medium delivers a strong mid-range red with excellent color strength and the thick, buttery consistency artists expect from GOLDEN Heavy Body Acrylics.

Made with a single PR5 pigment, Naphthol Red Medium is a darker Naphthol red that offers an economical alternative to Cadmium Red Medium. It is semi-opaque with a naturally glossy finish and provides bold, clean color for mixing, layering, expressive brushwork, and palette-knife applications.

Like all GOLDEN Heavy Body Acrylics, its thick consistency retains brushstrokes, palette-knife marks, and impasto peaks beautifully. Exceptionally high pigment loading provides intense color straight from the tube while allowing the paint to be extended or modified with GOLDEN mediums, gels, and pastes. 🖌️✨
