- Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2024You can use any number of things to thin Oil Paints, but this is the best for a good reason. It doesn't stink up your studio, it works fast, consistent, and it's clean. Came fast, well packaged and I say it's well worth the price for anyone who uses oil paints!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2025Having studied Oil Painting for decades Gamsol is the ONLY product I have used. My instructor introduced me to Gamsol and I have been delighted with the results from day one. The consistency has been most reliable and extremely effective. The ease of cleaning my brushes and palette knives makes clean up a dream.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2019I use this for blending oil pastels, Shiva oil sticks, color pencils, and wax crayons. It works beautifully, doesn't leave a super-greasy film, and doesn't have a scent. However, I can pick up a hint of *something* when I use it- just sort of a vapor that isn't pure (that sounds ridiculous but I'm trying to articulate it). For those with sensitivities to chemicals, this seems much less toxic than most, but there's still *something* that may cause issues. However, it's a lot less noxious than other substances I use in my work (including isopropyl alcohol) and it works very well and quickly, so I don't have prolonged exposure. Evaporates quickly, as well, so while it does leave oily residue on porous surfaces, it does go away leaving just the medium.
It also works great for getting adhesive off things.

I’ve not yet opened it, but assume it is in its usual excellent shape!

5.0 out of 5 stars 最高の筆洗液
最高の筆洗液です。同社の galkyd, あるいは galkyd lite, または Windsor& Newton の liquin などに最大 1:1 の比率まで混ぜると、素晴らしいペインチングオイル/薄め液ができます(それ以上混ぜると、絵の具の接着力が崩れてくるそうです)。従来のターペンタイン(テレピン)のようにネバネバしてくる問題がありませんので、スラスラ快適に描けます。ターペンタイン同様、あるいはそれ以上に、濁った液はフタをして放置すると、絵の具が沈澱して、再び清んだ液はまた使えます。清まなくなるまで使い続けられます。アメリカで15年愛用してましたが、日本では手に入りがたく、苦労してました。無臭で比較的無害ですが、アトリエに新鮮な酸素を取り入れるため、一日一度はしっかり換気してます。Gamblin の商品は、社長/開発者の Robert Gamblin さん本人が画家で元アート保護論者なので、大変優れてます。英語ができる方は、メールや電話で質問をすると、丁寧に返答してくれます。
