Bullshark™ Acrylic Gel Medium
Vintage Jersey Bottle
This gel medium comes in the original container Bullshark started with: a heavy glass Jersey bottle. We’re based in Jersey, the bottle came from Jersey, and it already had a job before it ever held gel medium.
The bottles are reused from SILK CITY Distillers (NJ) — real distillery glass, built to last, and slightly overqualified for art supplies. Instead of treating packaging as disposable, we decided to let it become part of the studio.
We’re not making more of these bottles.
What’s available now is what exists.
When they’re gone, this version is done.
Inside is our acrylic gel medium: clear-drying, flexible, and designed to be used without ceremony. It mixes cleanly with acrylic paint, builds texture when you want it to, and behaves when you’re sealing or collaging. No surprises, no tricks.
When the gel is gone, the bottle stays. Refill it. Repurpose it. Keep it on your shelf. It’s earned that spot.

Availability Note
This packaging is limited.
Once these bottles are gone, they won’t be restocked.
Shipping Note (Glass Bottle)
This product ships in a heavy glass bottle. We pack it carefully, but glass is glass.
In the unlikely event that your bottle arrives damaged, contact us and we’ll make it right. We can’t replace the bottle itself once they’re gone, but we won’t leave you stuck.
If you’d rather avoid shipping glass altogether, our gel medium is also available in flexible pouches designed for everyday studio use.
