From their website: White Courtrai siccative helps to dry oil colours as it is easy to use. It is important to be precise with the quantities: one drop to one part colour. This direct addition to colour should be carried out with slow-drying colours. It can also be used at 1 to 5% to create painting mediums.

From their website: The Harlem Duroziez drying medium increases the brilliance and transparency of glazes. It enables the build-up of layers over the course of half a day thanks to the rapid drying effect of thin layers. It is completely dry within three days.

From their website: The Flemish glazing medium enables artists to create glossy amber finishes in the style of the Flemish masters. It creates a transparent look. It also greatly enhances the brilliance of the oil. After half a day’s work, the colours can be layered over each other.

From their website: The Xavier de Langlais egg medium makes paints more creamy, accelerates their drying time and enables painters to create layers of velvety oil paint with a matt or glossy finish according to the amount used. It creates a matt (8 to 10 drops) or glossy (4 to 5 drops) look. This highly original recipe from Xavier de Langlais comes from early Italian painters who used an egg-based emulsion to set and hold the colour. The wet-look technique is called “tempera” and is perfectly balanced and stable to create perfect brush strokes. We recommend shaking it well before use so that the paint is nice and creamy.

From their website: The slow-drying J.G. Vibert painting medium holds brush marks, creates a painterly satin film and prevents any sinking. It creates a uniform top film and enables artists to rework old colours for long periods of time.
