Consisting of perfectly round, smooth, and crystal-clear micro-spheres measuring 1.5mm in diameter, this dry medium catches and refracts light across your canvas. Packaged in its raw state by Derivan Matisse, it avoids the preset concentration limits of pre-mixed texture gels, allowing you to determine the exact density and physical depth of your layered arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKey Features:\n\u003cbr\u003eRaw Density Customisation: Supplied entirely dry, allowing you to control the exact ratio of glass spheres to your paint or gel binder—ranging from a scattered, dew-like shimmer to a solid, water-droplet-style crust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect 1.5mm Spherical Geometry: Each bead is smoothly rounded to capture ambient studio light from all angles, adding a brilliant, magnifying texture that irregular mineral grains cannot match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCrystal-Clear Crystalline Clarity: Because the beads are completely transparent, they take on the color of whatever paint they are mixed with or laid over, creating luminous three-dimensional textures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVersatile Application Methods: Can be mixed directly into heavy body acrylics, blended into transparent gloss gels, or sprinkled by hand onto a wet, freshly painted layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFlawless Binder System Synergy: Integrates seamlessly into the entire Matisse ecosystem. To fully preserve the natural transparency and bright light-refraction of the beads, it is highly recommended to blend them into gloss-based vehicles like MM4 Gel Medium or MM7 Poly Gloss Varnish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MATISSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48315553546478,"sku":"1MD04GLB1","price":16.49,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0422\/1704\/6167\/files\/1MD04GLB1.jpg?v=1784065320","url":"https:\/\/www.hobbyland.co.nz\/products\/derivan-matisse-glass-beads-1-5mm-dry-medium-40ml","provider":"Hobby Land NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
