American floetrol wins! This was fantastic and such a wonderful learning channel. 🙏

[@josannefromin7750]

this is a great video, I sure needed to have some issues............I am glad that you do this video...............

[@TrinaRaysTrekofLife]

@Josanne, I agree! I'm so glad that I found her videos!! I love that she is doing these experiments and sharing with us! Are you a pour paint artist also? I just discovered Acrylic Pouring on 6/7/22 and I've already done 7 pour Paintings and posted 4 videos on my Channel! The first 2 were actually tempera paint pours because that's all I had. The next one was with Acrylic craft paints. The next one (6/12/22) was what I consider to be my first official one, because it was done with "real" Acrylic Paints and it turned out beautifully if I do say so myself! Lol Happy Pouring!!

[@alysonwhibley5872]

Being very new to acrylic pouring - I’ve learned more from your video than from hundreds I’ve watched ! The comparison between the mediums is incredibly useful. Thank you very much for your brilliant demonstration (cuz 😁😘😂)

[@rainbowacrylicsbyclaire]

Yay so glad it helped x

[@gillibbs1004]

As a newbie this was super useful and informative. I’m in Australia and have easy access to the floetrol but am discovering that the cells can be a bit much. From your video, the water and paint combo looked the most vivid in terms of colour purity with the US floetrol adding a bit of extra interest. Thanks so much for sharing this.

[@rainbowacrylicsbyclaire]

Thank you so much 😊

[@melaniechilvers5447]

Claire thank you so much for doing this experiment, it took a lot of time and effort on your part and is really appreciated. As you rightly said, art is very personal and for Dutch Pours I prefer just the water BUT with really good quality paint. Rinske Douna is a master at these pours and only uses either Windsor & Newton or Amsterdam paints. Her dutch pours are gorgeous, really etherial but not really celled. It was incredible to see how your results differed with the different products. Thank you.

[@221b-Maker-Street]

Yes, I adore Rinske's work too... 💙

[@timeenuf4200]

Possibly the best comparison demo I've seen. Thank you. Think your biggest challenge must have been how fast the paints dried out while you were putting this together.

[@kathystopczynski9661]

Being a new pour painter I truly appreciate the time you put into this lesson. Excellent taught me a lot. Thank you😊

[@amysorensen8117]

I agree with you, Claire on the tooth that are your favorite. Those just draw my eyes in.

[@lynnwhite1891]

I prefer the Uk Floetrol and also water. I don't like to see too many cells. Thank you so much Claire for taking the time to experiment for us all. X

[@zkins]

This video is pure gold. so helpful. thank you

[@janegirardot4163]

Thank you for the information on the different Floretrols. I definitely like the American Floetrol painting the best! The richness of the colors and distinct composition makes all the difference.

[@christy7850]

Wow!! I did not mind the length because I learned so much. I like the US Floetrol and the last AU Floetrol best. But what surprised me was the water one! The softness and intensity of the paint I really liked. Thank you so much for doing this experiment 👍🏻

[@hippydippy]

I loved the water one. Looked like the profile of an Indian head with his hand's up folded & praying to me.

[@barbararichter7077]

Even with the water one was lovely. Colourful, bright

I very much appreciate how much time & effort you put into this experiment!!!! So much work but super interesting! Thanks Claire 😊

[@cynthiastreeter7726]

Thank you for the comparison! I needed to see that. I have been so confused and wanted someone to do a side by side comparison. Thank you!

[@ellamentalart6873]

The cells form with just water because a lot of cell creation is based in the density of the paints (and the addition of oil such as silicone or oily pm). I hope that’s useful to others, it’s certainly helped me since I learned about this x

[@theresabradley4716]

I agree with you, Claire. My favourites are the ones done with the UK and US pouring mediums. Less cells than the others, but I am not a fan of a huge amount of them anyway. The colours and composition look better to me, but art is very subjective! Thank you for doing this experiment for us!

[@PattiThornton-cq8bo]

Wonderful experiment!!! Learned lots!! Thank you!!

[@sunfirejewels7530]

Each painting has its pros and cons. It's really in the eye of the beholder. What effect you are going for. So many flow artists copy each other and don't experiment or try to be creative on their own. The flow art technique can be used in other ways, such as for florals and landscapes. Even abstracts. Don't copy everything you see, find a way to use the flow acrylics in other kinds of art. Great tutorial on using the different products, thanks!

[@lynnsmith5931]

Thanks Claire... so good to have a UK pourer teaching us as we can’t get hold of some of the US products

[@adelecondron-king2365]

Brilliant demo thank you ...SOOOOOOO useful !!!

[@Nathalieroy2624]

Wow thank you for this

[@nancywilson5053]

Wondering if you have thought about mixing the American Floetrol with the Ausie Floetrol to see what that would do?

[@eddiehoward7433]

I would love to see the effects in that ideal

[@k8paints]

I am in America, have tried using both in one painting. But not mixing them together in the same cup. 3-4x American floetrol to paint creates a terrific cell activator!

[@katearm]

That's a very big and expensive experiment! Thanks so much for doing this for us! I just love your channel.

[@rebeccazephyrin8114]

Hi Clair according to Kathleen from coz creations there is Linseed oil in the Aussie floretrol. My favourite is the one with water. Thank you for taking the time to do this experiment for us. X

[@Angie-zx8ft]

I’m in the U.S & have seen the difference in Aussie Floetrol,I’ve gone on their websites for the ingredients differences & it doesn’t say any of ingredients actually. How do u know this?

[@Angie-zx8ft]

& I would love to get me hands on Aussie Floetrol but shipping is ridiculous so I suffer lol. Lulu how in our own countries what we have & would trade for other things in other countries. Guess that’s what substitution & creative minds have at it LOL

[@rebeccazephyrin8114]

@@Angie-zx8ft like I said from a video from coz creations. She said the someone had told her and he (maybe) had a job in Chemical engineering she does say in the video but can’t remember for sure. Check out her channel it was a couple of months ago now. I remember she pretty excited to be sent some Aussie foreteol. I’ve never used either being from the uk it’s not easy to come across and if you can it is as expensive as hell

[@DifferentLightDeb]

@@Angie-zx8ft One suggestion you might try is to decide to splurge on the Aussie Floetrol, but order it from an American supplier (PixelPaintDesigns) so you don't have to pay as much for shipping. THEN.... rather than using the Aussie Floetrol as your pouring medium, try putting just an ounce or so into a shallow plastic lid (think yogurt cup lid, for example) and then, if appropriate for your style of painting, dipping a strip of acetate into it, and use that acetate as a swipe across your paint.. amazing cells result. Learned this from watching Priscilla Batzell of Expressionist Art Studio.

[@lindaholbrook66]

Fabulous! Thanks for doing the hard work of experimenting. 👌🏻👏🏻

[@fotoalive]

I'M new at Arts and want to try pouring .

[@janiggulden4193]

An excellent comparison video Claire! My favorites are the American floetrol and the one with just water. Very well done!

[@carrma57]

Thank you for showing this. I've never used the UK and US floetrol and despite everyone saying the Aussie floetrol is the best, I thought they're all pretty much the same. Watching this has now shown me. I'm in Australia, so it's all I use. I only use the glue and water mix for the base coat on the canvas. I find that Amsterdam paint with Aussie floetrol gives the best cell activation doing swipes. I'm glad you like our floetrol. I feel for anyone buying it overseas because they pay a lot more for it.

[@juliegriffin2255]

I think you should consider painting the canvases with one or two coats of paint prior to pouring so the texture of the canvas does not intrude so much on your otherwise lovely designs. Perhaps let the first coat fully dry, then the second coat can be wet or dry prior to the pouring. This hides a lot of spots that might also be bare under your design. Worth the time. Thanks

[@teresaroper9993]

I paid $87. For 1 litre of Aussie Floetrol. Plus $29 shipping! It’s like gold!

[@yvette_is_Mamacado]

@@juliegriffin2255 I also saw a lot of balding, or spots of what looks like just colored canvas. Like you I also paint my canvases with either a diluted house paint or just a coat or 2 of acrylic. Loved this experiment & preferred the water over all PM. 😁

[@juliegriffin2255]

@@yvette_is_Mamacado a lot of times in life, we are trained to need and buy things that we don't actually need. That is true of PM and also in our diets. I have made paintings with and without PM (only water) and with and without other additives. One day, I used hand sanitizer because I did not have any other additives to try--just the hand sanitizer and water. The paintings that day were gorgeous. I have discovered that my paintings are the most beautiful when I say a prayer or set an intention right before pouring the paint. When I pray in gratitude, the paintings look the most beautiful.

[@mariacanales1870]

Thanks for the lessons…I like them all….❤

[@chienpo672]

I totally love the GLUE painting. Maybe not the middle bit most, but those corners are just as amazing as any of the other paintings. I would definitely do something with that painting. Add to it and enhance it a bit, keeping those corners for sure. Not a disaster at all! My next favorite is the one with the water. Like you said, it flows so smoothly.

[@dreamcatcher3861]

Thanks so much for doing these comparisons, it was fascinating. I agree, I love the flood floetrol painting the most. It would be interesting to see how each one reacts with a gentle swipe, just to see the kind of lacing that appears? Great video, thanks so much.🌻

[@tammyhellier9801]

Very interestering results. I like you glue picture the best but each of them are beautiful. Thank you.

[@claireshort7547]

Hi Claire, thank you for giving us your time to do this. It was incredibly interesting. I do completely agree with you with the compositions. I hands down prefer the English and American pours, next for me would be the water pour then the Aussie. Which, being English and being very frustrated at the cost of obtaining the Aussie floetrol, has made me very happy.. However, I 100% prefer using the Aussie floetrol in my bloom recipe. The results are just too gorgeous, it's like pringles, I've popped and I can't stop!! I was going to try it in a Dutch pour but thanks to you, I don't feel I need to. 😊😊 Xxx

[@consueloyoung4484]

First of all, thank you for all the work you put into this very important test. I must give you lots of credit for all the mixing!. I too found it all quite interesting and yes, I agree that the American floetrol allows the paint to maintain its integrity, the colors are vivid and strong. I was interested in the water only because the colors were also very vivid.

[@mairisimart]

Apparently Aussie Floetrol has some sort of oil in it. Cathleen at CozCreations was talking about that in her latest video, how she had trouble varnishing a painting where she had used it. She also showed us her cup of paint with the Aussie Floetrol in it, and it had an oily film over the top. Just an FYI. That's why you're seeing an uneven surface. Aussie Floetrol comes into its own in the Shelley Bloom technique : ) Loved your tutorial, thanks!

[@robinpickelsimer7229]

This is amazingly beautiful

[@furnitureflipping101ca]

I'm guessing it's silicone oil. Unfortunate that they would add something without making that clear.

[@CarolynDenison]

It may have had some silicone oil in the cup too. Silicone leaves oil on top of a dried painting. I clean mine before I varnish with a good rub with a paper towel. Most pourers will clean with baby wipes or mild soapy rag, then dry off with a paper towel. We all have our own ways of cleaning the up to varnish or resin.

[@taraallman5699]

Fab experiment. Thankyou. I think all too often we get caught up in a 'craze' where we all want something just because everyone else has it - currently seems to be the Aussie Flotrol. However, what this demonstrates is that it really is all about personal preference. Thankyou for spending your time showing us what each medium can do - side by side I can now see that I'm not that keen on the multi cell look, and instead if I were to invest in any, it would be the American, closely followed by the British.

Thank you so much for this experiment Claire.

Unfortunately I have no access to the US Floetrol. Your comparison gives great insight into how the different Floetrols compare and gives a solid basis to help achieve the Dutch Pour look I am aiming for. Thank you so much, I really appreciate the effort you went to.

I will definitely be following you and referring to this video for future pours! Thanks again.

Thank you 😊

[@alexandriamonk2345]

I totally agree with you on all fronts! Lots of cells with the aussie one, but I really love the UK one because I love how it almost looks like light dancing in a pool of water.

Thank you Claire, you have saved me a lot of time and work and also convinced me that I do need to use a pouring medium for some projects and not just water. Like you I like the way the colours react and spread, if that’s the correct term, with just water. I am pretty new to all this and finding out new things all the time, like in a couple of sea/beach pours I have just done, I got cells and lacing with the white (Amsterdam Titanium white) over iridescent colours, not so much over the plain colours. All the paints were mixed with a pouring medium (1parts Owatrol to 2 parts water) - 1 part paint to 1 part pouring medium and then water if needed to get the right consistency. I’m very happy with them and luckily we have holiday accommodation, my experiments will grace their walls! And hopefully some will sell!😜 Thank you again, I follow Molly, Kinella and Rinske, but it’s so nice to hear a British voice, their ideas and recommendations. Jeanette

[@possumbold]

It was a good review of the pouring mediums, especially the Australian Floetrol which a lot of people get great results from, thank you for demonstrating it and sharing. Strictly speaking though, it’s not a Dutch Pour. A DP should be covered with the base coat colours before blowing it out. I’d love to see you trying that way because you do get lovely lacing that way. I am amazed that people so often don’t try just water because Rinske Douna and now Molly (after many years of using Floetrol) always have such beautiful results using just water. Rinske did an experiment with Floetrol and preferred it to her water only painting, but still uses just water. The colours seem to blow out in a much silkier way with just water. I use either just water with Amsterdam paints or Australian Floetrol, but I always blow the extra base coat over as this helps produce far more dramatic lacing. You don’t lose the intensity of colour.

[@mypurplelyon]

I have to say YAY for the USA Floetrol. 🙂 I'm in the US so that's all I have access to, but to have you say that you like it best, was amazing. I shouldn't say that it's all I have access to, because there are other types and brands of pouring mediums, but I like the Floetrol the best. I personally don't like an overwhelming amount of cells, and I'm not crazy about super large ones either. I think the big cells take away from the composition of a painting, and to many small cells seem to hide the paint, or push it out of the way. Thank you for this awesome demonstration. It was the best one I've seen, and I've watched many, and tried many as well. I Love your work, and have tried a few of your ideas, without much success, but then I'm pretty new to pouring. Eventually I'll get there, and I hope I can create masterpieces like yours someday. 🙂 God Bless, and Happy Pouring.

Thank you for this fascinating demo and experiment. Thinking maybe one more test... add more PVA to your own mixture to thicken the medium...
