Which texture paste do I need?

3D Textured Modelling Paste
An opaque white acrylic paste for building 3D textured finishes. It has strong adhesion to most surfaces and dries to a resilient yet subtle finish. Paint over it after 24 hours, or blend it with acrylic colours to make a coloured modelling paste. Non-toxic and made in Australia. 250ml to 10 Litre
Dimensional Joint Compound
A smooth, spreadable textured compound that can be sanded and tinted. It dries white within 24 hours, and cracks can be filled and sanded for a polished finish. Apply up to 3.5 mm per layer. Non-toxic. 1kg and 4kg
Impasto Medium
A full-bodied medium that adds extra body to your acrylic colours without altering their original hue. Mix it into your paint for thick brush and palette knife texture. Dries to a low sheen and is non-yellowing. Non-toxic and made in Australia. 250ml to 10 Litre
Resin Sand Texture Medium
A heavy body, coarse acrylic gel enriched with natural sand particles. Use it straight or mixed with acrylic paint, then overpaint once dry. Dries to a matte white sandy finish. Non-toxic and made in Australia. 250ml and 1 Litre
