LUKAS Medium 5 Painting Butter Medium 2225 is a slightly yellowish medium for making quick drying, highly elastic, creamy alkyd resin oil colours. It dries like „pure“ oil colour.

The Painting Butter Medium 2225 is very heavy bodied and therefore gives extremely thick oil colours, accelerates drying, and avoids cracking.

This LUKAS Medium 5 Painting Butter Medium 2225 is non-yellowing. Once dry your paint layer will be resistant to turpentine.

TIPS! Close well after use. Paintings that are stored for long periods in the dark may show some slight yellowing especially in white areas. Light reverses this effect.

Price per tube.

Lukas Medium 5 - Painting Butter, which I have used since 2002, is by far the best medium for impasto work. It extends expensive paints very well, does not run, stays put where intended, it does not yellow (at all!), does not crack (at all!) and remains stable.

Once mixed in any ratio with oil paints and painted on, it will dry fairly quickly from the inside out, thus preventing wrinkling, pending the artist's common sense and oil painting best practice, obviously.

This is a remarkable medium for palette knife work. I cannot think of any other impasto medium capable of performing at such a high level.
