Thanks. Great video. One question. That unlocking formula on a plastic based paint looks quite powerful. Do you need a mask with that? (COPD sufferer here)
Should be for sure something acetone base also their paint probably got a special acrylic resin for this reason can be dissolved completely . to be honest from this video i don't want to try them out anymore . XD i saw other video about they were much more interesting and well done.
He fails to mention retarder which is a slow drying additives for acrylics. I use acrylics for years. I have never had problems as long as I used the right mediums.
There are 2 issues with retarder: (i) It can, if you use too much keep the paint sticky but unworkable for ages and (ii) it gives a weird shiny effect to the painted surface. I kinda dislike using retarders except in very small amounts. I haven't tried Atelier Interactive but from this (and other vids) you can see that it can do things that other acrylics coupled with retarder cannot do.
love the info...was wondering if you can use the unlock formula on regular acrylic paints like golden or liquitex???
no you can't doesn't work the same .

It smells like Alcohol. So if Alcohol gives you an issue, then go ahead and wear a mask.

Thank you for showing how this works. So glad I found your video. Can't wait to try this on a current painting.
