Golden 236ml Gesso

I’m pleased with this. It’s creamy, smooth and not too absorbent. The previous brand sucked the oil out of my paint and made painting a struggle.

Kind of needs 2 coats, but very good!

Used to prime different surfaces and layer for different effects.

Good quality, but hopefully it's going to be inexpensive.

great

アクリル絵の具の下地に購入しました。 筆の洗浄でコメントいろいろありますが、中性洗剤で洗って落ちましたよ。 使いやすいと思います。

Die Grundierung deckt sehr gut und ist auch ergiebig, wenn auch sehr teuer 25.99 Euro für 236 ml. Ich habe aber andere günstige Alternativen gefunden und bin mit dem neuen Produkt sehr zufrieden. Deshalb würde ich diese Produkt nicht mehr kaufen. Kann aber die Qualität weiter empfehlen.

It is well known that GOLDEN acrylic mediums are high quality products for both the new acrylic painting artist and established professionals. I had been using less expensive off-brand gesso to prep my canvas or substrate base before beginning my paintings. On a recent painting, the gesso was not holding the canvas well and became coming up in small micro pieces when I was dry brushing an area. My layers came off easily with the thin gesso showing through. I tell this to share why GOLDEN gesso is so much better and avoids these canvas and paint problems before a canvas is ruined by cheap gesso. I purchased this GOLDEN acrylic gesso primer and gave a new canvas two layers, giving a light sanding to each layer which is what GOLDEN recommends. And let me tell you - the difference between the GOLDEN product and the less expensive brands was so obvious. The final surface was very smooth with just a hint of the canvas texture below it. The coverage was impressive, as was dry time and there was no streaking. I tried mixing acrylic colors with it and that worked very well. I thinned it with water and that worked very well also. Odor was not a problem. I could see using this not just in painting projects but in a broad variety of DIY and craft applications like furniture refinishing, photo transfers, wood projects and the like. It would also work well to cover bad beginnings to start over! The quality of this gesso just comes through so thoroughly on so many fronts and gives a true satisfaction when using it. It is expensive, true, but work the investment. I am happy to give this product a five star rating!

Great product
