Gamblin 32 oz. Cold Wax Medium (946ml)
Gamblin 32 oz. Cold Wax Medium (946ml) is a professional oil painting medium made from naturally white beeswax blended with odourless mineral spirits and a small amount of alkyd resin for enhanced durability and adhesion. Designed to be mixed with oil colours, it increases body, creates a soft matte finish and allows for rich, layered texture without heavy, oily impasto. It enhances transparency while maintaining flexibility and strong paint film integrity. The 946ml studio size is ideal for artists who regularly work with cold wax techniques and want consistency, depth and beautiful surface character in their oil paintings.
How to Use
Mix with oil paint
Place oil colour on your palette and gradually blend in Gamblin 32 oz. Cold Wax Medium (946ml) using a palette knife. Adjust the ratio to achieve your desired thickness and surface effect. Many artists work up to a 1:1 ratio of paint to wax.
Build texture and layers
Apply with a brush, palette knife, silicone tool or cloth to create dimensional, layered surfaces. Allow each layer to set before applying additional layers.
Glazing and surface depth
Use smaller amounts to create soft, velvety glazes with a matte finish and subtle atmospheric depth.
Surface support
For heavier applications, work on rigid supports such as wood panels or well-primed boards to ensure long term stability.
Tip
Once fully dry, gently buff the surface with a soft cloth to enhance sheen and reveal depth within the layered textures.
