Hello Pilan: Sorry I hit the send button before I saw your question. Neo Megilp is a soft, silky gel medium. We first saw Megilp at the Tate Gallery in London. A conservation scientist gave us a sample and Bob started to play with it. Megilp was Turner's favorite medium that he used as a top coat glaze. Like its ancestor, Neo Megilp can create dimensional glazes. Unfortunately many of top layers on Turner's paintings have been sanded off because of the darkening but at the Tate you can still see paintings that have had less aggressive conservation. Three dimensional atmospheric glazes ... nice technique. More info at:
