Pros & Cons
Pros
Super easy to use. Great for smooth application. Works well in most conditions. It's all they claim it is. The price is good with amazon. Very nice medium because of the ease of use. Will use again.
This is the only solvent for oil colors that is tsa safe and legal. Good peaks for painterly brush strokes. A little bit goes a long way in thinning out oil paints.
Gamblin paints, mediums, varnish and oms are the best in my humble opinion. I like to bring paints with me when i travel so this is a no brainer. Perfect for plein air painting because it is so travel-friendly.
Highlights
Quality
It works well for thickness where i want to show brush strokes and also just for making the paint more workable when mixing colors
Easy to use and the best part is no fumes
It dries and shrinks your oil painted textures into a shriveled prune so heed the warning if you intend on building texture with this
It is relatively light weight does not run and you can carry it in your suitcase with no problem
Shipping
I am pleased by how fast is came in
Competitiveness
While it is more expensive than other mediums i personally will pay a little more for something that is a little bit safer
