Since 1980, Gamblin has handcrafted luscious oil colors and contemporary painting mediums that are true to historic working properties, yet safer and more permanent. Gamblin Solvent-Free Oil Gel Mediums extend that mission by giving oil painters alternatives that don't require the use of toxic solvents. Made from safflower oil and alkyd resin, eco-friendly Gamblin Solvent-Free Gel gives colors more gloss, flow, and transparency, yet holds the shape of brushstrokes. It has a moderately fast drying rate.

Eco-friendly Gamblin Solvent-Free Oil Gel Mediums are handcrafted at the company's wind-powered factory in Portland, Oregon. All have been developed to support a broad range of painting techniques with minimal compromise in terms of color, dry time, texture, and mark making. They are non-toxic, contain no Gamsol or petroleum distillates, and clean up with soap and water.
