Description

Professional Gesso Medium is a classic titanium white acrylic ground that prepares your surface and adds high tooth.

KEY FEATURES

  • Primes surfaces and adds high tooth for maximum colour adhesion and stability.
  • Gives a matte white, opaque finish which provides a professional standard, archival base to help maintain the longevity of your work
  • Stiffens your canvases and creates the optimum absorbency for paint application
  • Establishes a good surface for preliminary charcoal or pencil drawings
  • Always use a quality artist's gesso if you want a lasting, archival base - a low-cost ground will flake and separate from your support, taking your work with it. Under the right conditions, a professional gesso will last generations.

HOW TO USE

  • Use undiluted or thin with up to 25% water; when thinning more than 25%, use an equal mixture of water and Liquitex Matte Medium.
  • Sand hard or shiny surfaces first, apply a thin coat with a wide, flat brush, and let it dry for at least 24 hours before painting.
  • To create a smoother base, sand the surface and reapply gesso
  • If using as a base for oils, apply 2-4 coats and sand between applications
  • Add acrylic colour for a custom tint - Soft Body Acrylic is the optimum consistency
