Rublev Colours Easy Gesso 500g
Rublev Colours Easy Gesso 500g
An easy way to make genuine glue grounds, also known as 'traditional gesso.' This is not an acrylic "gesso." It's the real thing: hide glue and whiting (calcium carbonate). But we've made it easy to prepare: Mix equal amounts of warm water and Easy Gesso, wait a few hours for it to gel, and then warm it until it is liquid enough to apply with a brush. It can also be applied cold as a soft gelatinous mass similar in consistency to tofu. The difference between real gesso and acrylic "gesso" or primers is a silky soft surface that is absorbent to water-based paints.
Easy Gesso is best used on rigid supports, like wood panels. It is not recommended for use on flexible supports, such as stretched canvas. However, you can apply it to a canvas mounted on a rigid support.
Contains medium ground calcite (calcium carbonate) and rabbit skin glue.
Warning: This product can expose you to chemicals including silica, crystalline (airborne particles of respirable size), which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
