Pumice Medium Jar Artequipment Amsterdam Pumice middle medium 127 (jar)

Artequipment Amsterdam Pumice middle medium 127 is a jarred medium-grain pumice designed for artistic and craft applications. Presented in a convenient jar, this pumice can be mixed into paints, texture gels, or pastes to add controlled grit and tactile surface structure. The medium grain size balances visible texture with ease of application, making it suitable for effects ranging from subtle surface variation to pronounced roughness in dioramas, models, paintings, and restoration work.

Advantages

This medium pumice offers consistent particle size for predictable texture when blended with acrylics, varnishes or binder mediums. Supplied in a resealable jar, it remains dry and easy to measure, reducing waste and ensuring repeatable results. The neutral color integrates well with pigments and tints, allowing straightforward color matching or painting over once applied and cured. Its abrasive nature also supports light restoration and non-slip surface creation without requiring specialized tools.

Suitable for

• Adding texture to acrylic and alkyd paints
• Surface modelling and scenic effects for scale models and dioramas
• Creating non-slip finishes on small craft objects
• Restoration detailing and subtle abrasion work
• Mixing into texture pastes, gels, and grits for mixed-media art

Key specifications

• Form: dry, medium-grain pumice in a jar
• Grain size: medium (provides visible texture without excessive coarseness)
• Packaging: resealable jar for controlled dispensing and storage
• Compatibility: mixable with water-based and many solvent-based binders, varnishes and paints
• Color: natural neutral tone suitable for tinting or overpainting

How to use

Stir or shake the jar before use to loosen settled particles. Measure and gradually add pumice to your chosen binder—acrylic medium, texture paste or paint—until the desired texture is reached, starting with small proportions and adjusting as needed. Apply with a palette knife, brush or spatula and shape while the mixture is wet; allow to dry fully before sanding or overpainting. For non-slip surfaces, broadcast or press the pumice into a wet topcoat and seal when cured.

Usage recommendations

Wear a dust mask when handling dry pumice to avoid inhalation of fine particles. Test compatibility with your paint or medium on a small sample to confirm adhesion and color results before full application. Store the jar tightly closed in a dry place to prevent moisture clumping and to maintain consistent performance.
