Liquitex

Key Features

• Gives a matte white, opaque finish which provides a long-lasting base
• Primes surfaces and adds a high level of tooth for good color adhesion and stability
• Stiffens your canvases and creates the right absorbency for paint application
• Establishes a good surface for acrylics, oils, charcoal, pastels or pencil drawings
• You can use this as a dry base for oil paints, but do not mix with oils

How to Use

• Use undiluted or thin with up to 25% water
• Sand hard or shiny surfaces first, apply a thin coat with a wide, flat brush and leave to dry for at least 24 hours before starting to paint
• 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 color to make a tinted gesso
