The Liquitex Professional White Gesso primes surfaces & adds a high level of tooth for maximum color adhesion & 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 & creates the optimum absorbency for paint application. Establishes a good surface for preliminary charcoal or pencil drawings. Always use a quality artists gesso if you want a lasting, archival base
- a low-cost ground will flake & separate from your support, taking your work with it. With proper application & under the right conditions, a professional gesso will last generations. Fully intermixable with all Liquitex products. Use undiluted or thin with up to 25% water
- when thinning more than 25%, use an equal mixture of water & Liquitex Matte Medium. Sand hard or shiny surfaces first, apply a thin coat to support with a wide, flat brush & leave to dry for at least 24 hours before starting to paint. To create a smoother base, sand the surface & reapply gesso. If using as a base for oils, apply 2-4 coats & sand between applications. Add acrylic color for a custom tint. Soft Body Acrylic is the optimum consistency. Two coats are recommended under oil colour.   Use with Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylic & Liquitex Soft Body Acrylic colours.
