Liquitex Professional Gesso 8oz Clear
Liquitex Professional Gesso 8oz Clear
Liquitex Professional Clear Gesso is a clear ground to prepare your surface and add a high level of tooth. Primes surfaces and adds a high level of tooth for maximum color adhesion and stability. Gives a transparent matte finish which allows the original surface to show through and 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 suitable surface for preliminary charcoal or pencil drawings.
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 and Liquitex Matte Medium. Sand hard or shiny surfaces first, apply a thin coat to support (avoiding overbrushing) 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 a transparent/semi-opaque acrylic color for a custom sheer tint - Soft Body Acrylic is the optimum consistency.
lways 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. With proper application and under the right conditions, a professional gesso like this will last generations.
