Look. If you paint with acrylics and you have not tried GOLDEN Heavy Body yet, this is your sign and we are not sorry for the intervention. Trans Brown Iron Oxide (S3) is part of the range that put GOLDEN on the map in 1980, and it genuinely keeps getting better. A 59ml tube of thick, richly pigmented acrylic with a buttery, knife-holds-its-peak consistency. The kind of paint that makes your mark-making feel like it actually counts for something.

★ Art Shed Staff Tip
Transparent warm brown that glazes with remarkable depth. Layer multiple washes of this over a white ground and watch it build into a rich, glowing warmth that opaque browns simply cannot achieve.

Trans Brown Iron Oxide uses a carefully balanced pigment blend (PR101, PBk7). Fully transparent — glazing, layering, building luminous depth that glows from within. ASTM I lightfastness — 100+ year colour stability under normal indoor display.

Why GOLDEN Heavy Body is in Serious Studios

  • No fillers. No extenders. No dyes. Pure pigment in 100% acrylic emulsion. That is it.
  • Buttery consistency that holds its peak. Brushstrokes stay. Palette knife marks peak and stay peaked. No overnight slumping.
  • Batch-to-batch colour consistency. Every production run is matched. Your palette does not change on you between orders.
  • Permanent and waterproof once dry. A flexible, archival film that will not crack, yellow, or reactivate with water.
