Michael Harding Non-Absorbent Acrylic Primer ensures a smooth paint surface and will provide a strong bond to the layers of paint applied, with just enough tooth so as not to be greasy in feel.

Application:

Apply 2 coats. The first coat may be applied 25% diluted with water to increase flow and coverage if required. Apply a second coat once the first coat is touch dry (approx.. 1 hour). This product may be applied to linen, wood, MDF and other supports to produce a strong, flexible, permanent, highly pigmented ground. Suitable for as a ground for both acrylic and oil paint.

May be applied over standard primed canvases to render them non-absorbent. Do not apply over rabbit skin/hide glue or to unsound supports such as cardboard and flimsy supports.

Technical Data:

If areas of the finished work are left revealing primer or unpainted areas, the artist can be assured the primer is lightfast in its own respect and the exposed primer will not fade over time.

All the above shades are intermixable. All can also have acrylic paint applied if needed.
