Gamblin 37ml Solvent-Free Gel
Gamblin 37ml Solvent-Free Gel is a contemporary oil painting medium made from safflower oil and alkyd resin, designed to increase flow and transparency without the use of solvents. Its smooth, gel-like consistency softens brushmarks slightly while maintaining structure, making it ideal for glazing, extending colour and building luminous layers. This solvent-free formula improves adhesion and flexibility while keeping colours rich and vibrant. The compact 37ml size is perfect for travel kits, workshops or artists wanting to try a solvent-free approach in their oil painting practice.
How to Use
Mix with oil colours
Add a small amount of Gamblin 37ml Solvent-Free Gel to your oil paint on the palette and mix thoroughly. Start sparingly and increase gradually to achieve the desired flow and transparency.
Glazing and layering
Use to create smooth, transparent glazes with enhanced depth and subtle gloss. Increase medium slightly in upper layers while following the fat over lean principle.
Improving flow
Blend into thicker oil colours to reduce brush drag and improve movement without thinning with solvent.
Solvent-free practice
Pair with solvent-free studio methods for a lower-odour working environment. Clean brushes using oil followed by soap and water if working completely solvent-free.
Tip
Use in moderate amounts and apply in thin layers to support proper drying and long term surface stability.

Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel is the only solvent-free painting medium that supports a broad range of painting techniques with minimal compromise.
Solvent-Free Gel gives colours more flow and transparency, yet holds the shape of your brushmark. Solvent-Free Gel has a moderately fast drying rate and increases gloss. Made from safflower oil and alkyd resin, Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel is non-toxic and contains no Gamsol or petroleum distillates.
In comparison to other solvent-free mediums, Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel supports the broadest range of painting techniques with the least compromise across colour, dry time, texture and mark-making. To ensure proper drying of paint layers, Solvent-Free Gel should be used in moderation with oil colors. No more than 25% by volume. To avoid wrinkling, apply mixtures of Solvent-Free Gel and oil colors thinly.
To paint solvent-free, we recommend Gamblin Safflower Oil for cleaning brushes while you are working. After your painting session, brushes can be further cleaned using Gamsol and/or soap and water.
