AHH! This is gonna be so helpful. First I feel like I use them wrong, I always have some kind of problem. so thank you! and now I can find one that works for me and does what I want it to.

Why dont u try and make an art piece using only masking fluid? U have a range of tones, textures AND some colours so it would interesting to see what u could create! •♡•
Exactly. I have that one and it's just so bad. It's crap. I bought it bc it was the one they had available in a store I ordered from and it was always really bad. Now couple years after buying I used it and turns out it has gone bad or something! How is this possible it ruined my watercolor. It just doesn't come out, it's all sticky. It really did ruin my painting. And that led me to this video to find a new masking fluid.
in my watercolor class at uni, we're using the pebeo drawing gum as our masking fluid and my classmate's painting she worked on for 4 hours was destroyed by the drawing gum. it bled her colors and ripped up huge sections of paper. she was in tears for like 20 minutes and had to go home.
OH MY GOD So I have only used the Sennelier applicator masking fluid, and I thought that I was just terrible with it/hated masking fluid. I should definitely give it another go with a different brand.
I love these videos of you testing out art supplies to see which one works the best. They remind me a lot of simplynaillogical's videos on which one's the best black/white nail polish. I'm a guy and I don't have long nails so her videos don't really help me but I'm into art so your videos help me a lot! I also just thought about buying masking fluid so thanks!
Utrecht is a Blick brand. I used to go to Utrecht art store in Ohio, but I think Blick bought the stores at some point. Oh, and thanks for the video!! I bought some masking fluid a while back but it looks scary so I haven't used it yet, lol.
I wish you had done a test for lines of masking fluid, I've found that sometimes the paint leaks under the fluid if the masking fluid is applied in thin lines. The sennelier and fineline ones might have done better on a thin line test as I imagine the formula is designed for thin/fine work. This was a really useful video, thank you.
I wish you would have tested it over line art I find every time I use masking fluid it changes the line art or peels it off. But really help video thank you
This is really helpful. I had a bottle of Sennelier's masking fluid and, based on reviews online, I thought that mine might had gone off, seeing how people thought it was fantastic while mine acted just as yours did - ripping paper like there was no tomorrow. I've started using jackson's, and it's sooo much better. Thanks for taking the time to review these!
I recommend watching the full video. But here’s the ones she’s decided on with prices! Since prices weren’t mentioned after the introduction of it Bottled Masking Fluids the ant queen likes most. Cheapest to most expensive Andrew Jeri 5.50 Schmincke 6.39 Grumbacher 7.43 QoR 7.69 Urecht 8.09 Applicator Masking fluids Schmincke 10.93 Pen applicators Neither would recommend but pébéo over molotow Pébéo 6.50 Molotow 10.08
The Fineline is my go-to for my classes and for my own work. You just really have to make sure that the paper is completely dry after a wash. The longer it sits the easier it comes up. You can also use makeup liquid latex. It's basically all the same
This was really helpful. However! I learned new things in my own testing since I watched this video that make the Schminke and Windsor & Newton fluids more valuable. For both of them, the paper really matters. When I tested W&N on some Canson watercolor XL it tore it up horribly. But when I tested it on some hot press Arches watercolor paper it worked like a charm, no issues at all with color lifting or tearing. With the Schminke, I realized that you need to let it dry longer if you want to peel it up in one easy layer instead of having it rub into lots of little bits. The Schminke actually works really nicely, you just need to let it dry longer than an hour (not sure how much longer, it probably varies). This wouldn't be ideal for a project that you were trying to finish quickly.
This is so thorough, helpful and satisfying to watch. Awesome. Even to just find out the best techniques for each brand to use up a bottle. I keep getting disappointed with Windsor newton products lately 😕 Hope you do more vids like this 🙂xo
Just to let y'all know; many masking fluids (from my very limited knowledge) contain latex, so be careful or avoid them if you have a latex allergy. I found out the very hard way please take care of yourselves.
Hey guys! I've worked with watercolor before, and I think I can suggest a good alternative for masking fluid! Ya ready? It's called *rubber cement* . I actually preferred it to the other masking fluid I used in my classes in college. This stuff WORKS. And if you're broke, like me, I found it at Target for 1.99! I'm not telling you what to use (let the Golden Ant Art Goddess bask you with her glory and knowledge of such mighty subjects, all hail Kasey) but I just thought I'd pop in and share a tip that both saved me money and many an art piece. *THIS HAS BEEN A RANSOM REVIEWS WITH RYLAN*
I love your videos so much, and your rambling is one of the reasons! Often I'll put them on while I multi-task and just listen to you chat and nerd out over art supplies. Thanks for the content. :)
been using schmincke since 10 years and never had a problem... also i use a toothpick for application. thin application only, if possible (it's cheaper lol I aint gon waste no product and money). this was fun to watch :,)
I think I will hardly need masking fluid, but for some paintings I'll need it, especially for a class I want to take. After this video, I want to buy the Schminkle. My question is how long can you store a bottle for, since I won't be using it often?
Thank you for taking the time to make such a clear and informative video. I had no idea which masking fluid to buy. I do now! :) You cleared up many of my questions and saved me a lot of time and money. Thanks again!
WOW, How incredibly thorough! The only thing that I can think of that is missing is how they perform if you don't remove the mask for 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, etc. Maybe a test of applying it to wet or damp paper. Good Job !!
I’ve been using masking fluids for several decades. Some were okay, some were meh and others were a complete disaster! Using these masking fluids were truly an exasperating exercise even for a seasoned watercolorist. Thank you very much for this insightful video.
I've needed this for so long, as someone that learns from the internet and from other artists trial and error, I'm very thankful for videos like this!!! 💖
thank you so much for this super comprehensive vid!! you have no idea now helpful this was while trying to figure out which masking fluids to buy!! i was shocked that winsor newton was not good considering how pretty high quality their products are
I think the first 2 tore the paper because of the scrubber tool you were using!!!! Sure of it, if you used your finger it would of been fine. Windsor and Newton are fantastic products. I never had a problem with their masking fluid
Thank you! Masking fluid was a horror show to work with for me! You have the brand I used and I’m surprised it worked so much better for you than it did for me. I bought one and I had such a hard time with it! It was pasty and chunky and dried the second I worked with it. Maybe it was expired or something. This is such a helpful video! I can finally find a masking fluid that’ll work with me.
AHH! This is gonna be so helpful. First I feel like I use them wrong, I always have some kind of problem. so thank you! and now I can find one that works for me and does what I want it to.
That's what she's doing the series for! It's so helpful, ik

U have a range of tones, textures AND some colours so it would interesting to see what u could create! •♡•
What’s cool is some of the fluid has color in it
What's your experience with masking fluid? Have any horror stories? Does it work perfectly for you ever time?
Love you
Hi this i s awesome video
I arrived early for once☺
Never used it but can’t wait to try it out
Kasey Golden never used it hehe
Kasey: *talking about the how senneler being the worst one*
Me: *looking at my senneler knowingly*
It’s sennelier. But their watercolor is good though.

Well yes, but actually no
I just noticed that you used your broken lines for the boarders! It's a nice personal touch :D
I read it as “ artist making fluids”
I thought you just drank it and became an artist
Htcupcakes Studios i need some of that 😂
WHAT THE- i commented the same thing! (Thats not saying you copied me or i copied you.)
Lmao🤣🤣
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I need it. Swing some
I found it so funny to hear you pronounce Utrecht, it is a city in the Netherlands. It was a nice try and an interesting video!
Hahahaha I just posted this (didn't see your comment) Seems like Utrecht and Groningen are 2 of the hardest names ;')

@Carol U Can't Have The Kids :)
Haha relatable comment
Conclusion: you can use any masking fluid on coldpress paper
Actually not, speaking out of experience
I’m feeling a “painting with masking fluid” vid in the future 😏
Yaaaasssss!!!!! Please!!!
If someone wants to jump right in, the results for bottled masking fluids - 23:13 & Applicator - 33:12
Thank you, I was looking for this!
Everyone: There’s no way someone will spend hours testing 20 different types of masking fluid.
Kasey: Hold my watercolors.
Utrecht is a Blick brand. I used to go to Utrecht art store in Ohio, but I think Blick bought the stores at some point.
Oh, and thanks for the video!! I bought some masking fluid a while back but it looks scary so I haven't used it yet, lol.
"A lovely *pale pastel NEON* pink"
OK what kinda logic is that?
(jk ily kasey)
commented that exact same thing with the GF (who also paints and loves pastels) but, when you think of it... it really is pastel neon
I wish you had done a test for lines of masking fluid, I've found that sometimes the paint leaks under the fluid if the masking fluid is applied in thin lines.

Girl, I appreciate how thorough this video is. You’re killing it. I DONT NEED TO WATCH ANOTHER VIDEO! Thank you!

Me: doesn’t use watercolor much less masking fluid
Also me: watches the full 35+ minute video
I recommend watching the full video. But here’s the ones she’s decided on with prices! Since prices weren’t mentioned after the introduction of it
Bottled Masking Fluids the ant queen likes most. Cheapest to most expensive
Andrew Jeri 5.50
Schmincke 6.39
Grumbacher 7.43
QoR 7.69
Urecht 8.09
Applicator Masking fluids
Schmincke 10.93
Pen applicators
Neither would recommend but pébéo over molotow
Pébéo 6.50
Molotow 10.08
**cries in broke**
weeby weeb This is meant to be a joke. No need to take it so seriously :T
Sob sob 😭 can I join u
At the end when she recommends the ones that preformed well, it seriously felt like an award ceremony:p
I’m so terrified of using masking fluids
Btw love how organised this test is! You are such an inspiration Kasey 😍
The Fineline is my go-to for my classes and for my own work. You just really have to make sure that the paper is completely dry after a wash. The longer it sits the easier it comes up. You can also use makeup liquid latex. It's basically all the same
"What have we learned so far?
...That I want Ice Cream."
I love you Kasey-
THANK YOU i wanted to buy my first masking fluid but couldn't decide which one... This was so helpful!
i use the schminke personally and i love it! i've found that it works best if you let it dry overnight, especially for splatters and thick application
Could you maybe do a review on gold pens? I always have such horrid luck getting one that works for more than like a week... ;~;
Painting with masking fluid.... you got a nice color range there
This was really helpful. However! I learned new things in my own testing since I watched this video that make the Schminke and Windsor & Newton fluids more valuable.

Hope you do more vids like this 🙂xo
nobody:
senneler: Im about to ruin kaseys whole career
I use the Molotow pen. I just take it off with an eraser. But I only use cold press paper. So maybe that's why I don't have any problems with it.
28:12 "The more I pump, the more liquid comes out"
That's a very questionable choice of words there, Kasey..
Taken out of context, it is.
The maimeri and schminke ones seemed like they did the least damage and the utrecht one looks really good too. This was super helpful!
Just Amazing! Thank you so much for doing these videos, they are invaluable! You save my art Kasey
Just to let y'all know; many masking fluids (from my very limited knowledge) contain latex, so be careful or avoid them if you have a latex allergy.
I found out the very hard way please take care of yourselves.
Would also love to see thin line tests, but the video is suuuuuper helpful! Thank you so much!
Did you draw your pfp? It's gorgeous!
yeemo trash yeah i did, thank you! :)
I’m so happy you posted this I wanted to get masking fluid but I didn’t know which. Thank you!!!
Seeing Utrecht on there, I was just waiting for her to try and say it..😅
It was too funny to hear how she said it XD 'a-trick' I died 🤣🤣🤣
"seh-ne-lee-yea" its a french brand and thats how u pronounce it :)
Say nay lee yay
Thank you so much for doing this! I feel like we both have the same type of crazy to do these types of long tedious tests and enjoy them so much lol!!
This was amazing, 3 years later and still so useful. Thanks for putting so much into this comparison vid.
Hurray for Utrecht my hometown :)
lol y'all know that kaseys gotta do them broken borders
we love broken borders
Thank you so much! I have been thinking about buying masking fluid for quite some time now, now I finally now which one to buy :)
You should make a painting with just masking fluids
Hey guys! I've worked with watercolor before, and I think I can suggest a good alternative for masking fluid! Ya ready? It's called *rubber cement* .

Also a good product: photo album glue. Removed well with kneaded eraser/that sticky stuff you can use to hang posters up on walls and stuff like that.

Omg Kasey Golden found some better masking fluids!?😍 I'm excited to see what art you use them on in the future! Keep doin' you booboo!

Since there’s so many shades of the masking fluid, you should totally have a challenge to paint something using only the masking fluid

Thanks for the in-depth look at masking fluid. Very helpful!
Good to know! I have the Winsor Newton masking fluid so when I use it I will use a thin layer
You should Do a video painting with masking fluid.
I literallly just bought masking fluid a while ago
Yaaas!! Thank you so much for this! I've been dying to experiment with making fluid! Your tests are so clear and to the point!
