Contrast Medium is the dial that takes your Contrast paints from bold to subtle. Mix it in to thin a colour for smooth glazes, soft shading and lighter tones — or to stretch a favourite Contrast across more models without losing that one-coat magic. It's the quiet enabler that makes the whole Contrast range far more versatile than it first looks.
