Our Acrylic Gesso Primer provides an intense, highly-opaque white painting surface with a good 'tooth’, suitable for both acrylic and oil paintings on canvas, wood, board and many other surfaces. Because it is a flexible primer, it can be used on canvas and other non-rigid surfaces. Ready for use undiluted, it dries quickly with a matt, slightly textured surface.
Instructions:
- 1. Stir contents before use. Thin with water up to 10% when applying to absorbent surfaces.
- 2. Surface to be primed should be clean and free of loose particles.
- 3. Do not size ground before application. When the final coat is thoroughly dry, a second may be applied. Ready for use after 24 hours.
- 4. Glossy or smooth surfaces should be slightly roughed to improve adhesion before applying primer. Avoid exposure to frost and do not apply at temperatures below 5C.
