Liquitex Professional Acrylic Medium for Acrylic and Oil Paint, White Gesso Surface Prep, 473 ml

The gesso is great quality but the price is a bit much for the size.I use gesso to give my projects a base coat before I apply acrylic paint or other mediums. Applies nicely and great application when dry too.I have never used this make before and always wanted to get my hands on this to try it out. Recommend, thank you

Not too thick, spreads well with either knife or brush, dries quickly, sands well when dry if required, seems to seal well, though only used on canvas board and hardboard so far to get a smoother surface, and not on raw canvas or linen.

I Decided to Purchase this Liquitex Gesso & give it a Try out.I Purchase a Lot of Liquitex Products & find them Of Good Quality & at Affordable prices.This Gesso Does seem alot more fluidly than the previous Gesso I had been purchasing But it Does Go on Nicely & Good coverage.I Find using a Shower Glass Window Wiper or a Large Car Filler plastic paddle Does a Grand Job at smoothly Putting this Gesso on to Canvas 👌 Applying it on with a Brush leaves Brush Lines when it drys but by using this method of applying the Gesso it leaves No Brush Mark's what so ever Which Extremely important when it comes to Painting Smooth Objects like Faces or Smooth sea scenes & Detail Art 👍Sometimes you will Purchase a Canvas from the Store & it states its already Gesso Primed But I always Tend to Give A New Cotton stretched canvas a Couple of coats of my own Gesso.Also if You purchase a Canvas & you find that its Extremely RoughIts a Good Idea to Get some lowish Grit Grade Sandpaper & give it a sand down Making sure you Dont Put to much pressure on the canvas while Sanding .After sanding it all over give it a Wipe down to remove Dust & then simply apply this Gesso on to Canvas using something Flat and Smooth like a (Large Car body Filler Paddle ) to Apply The Gesso over the Canvas evenly making sure you cover the Whole canvas ...Then wait till Dry & Do the same process Again using some Fine Grit sandpaper to give it Another Light Sanding over 👍Brush off Sanding Dust and Apply a 2nd coat of Gesso over Again then Leave to Dry!!! You will Now Have a Great Smooth finished Canvas...Lovely to Work on - Making it easier to Apply Paints And Better for Blending and so on 🖌🎨 I Paint in Acrylic & this Process Works Great for the Art work I create.Going back to this product I Have Found it to be Good Gesso👍It Goes on the Canvas Nicely & spreads around Great .It's a bit on the Pricey Side for the size you get but It is Good Stuff !!!So Yes I would Definitely Recommend this Product To Anyone Looking For Some GessoFor Priming There Canvas.I Hope someone has Found This Review Helpful ? Thank you.

It’s good gesso , easy to apply . It’s consistency is nice and creamy not too thick , bit on the runny side but not an issue. Once it’s down it dries quick . Great for sketchbooks with not so good paper very useful . This product will enable me to use sketchbooks for much more media than I could without it . I highly recommend you try this product . It also mixes with acrylic wonderfully when mixing colours .

Does the job properly, no issues. Perhaps slightly more expensive than other gesso options but I have been lead to believe that it is better quality than competitors.

It goes on well ,but if spray it on you don’t get the brushstrokes and you get a greater finish,love it would recommend it 🥇🥳🥳🥳

I bought this after burning two of my clay polymer sculpts in the oven and they came out solid black but still otherwise fine. Wanting to salvage them as I had been pleased with them, I searched what was the best thing to use to prime the clay for painting (since the black was showing through the paint when I initially tried) and Gesso was what came up. Bought this one based on price/bottle size, tried it straight away and it covered the sculpt perfectly. I'll use this to prime all my pieces from now on before painting, even when I don't burn them solid black!

For years I've been using £5 gesso from The Works but decided to try this product despite it being two or three times more expensive. The instructions suggest that it takes a long while to dry properly which is not always convenient. I can't honestly say that this is better but it does go a long way and the squeeze bottle is easier to use.

The Liquitex Professional Gesso Surface Prep Medium is a solid pick for artists looking to get their surfaces just right. This white gesso is great for prepping your canvas, wood, or paper, giving you a smooth, consistent base to work on. It helps your paint stick better and makes colors pop.The gesso itself is creamy and spreads easily, so you won’t have to worry about streaks or uneven spots. It dries pretty fast, too, leaving you with a flexible, non-yellowing, matte finish that's perfect for both acrylic and oil paints. Plus, the size is super handy—whether you're just starting out or need something portable. All in all, Liquitex Professional Gesso is a must-have for making sure your artwork turns out looking its best.

Perfect quality medium for this painting! Large bottle packed & sealed well.

The white Liquitex gesso is excellent to prepare unprimed canvas, the way I use it that works for me is I first cut my canvas to size making sure I leave an extra few inches all the way around, I'll give the canvas its first coat and let dry completely overnight, and then the next morning I will staple and stretch the canvas over the stretcher bars nice and tight like a drum skin, next install your hanging wire on the back, and then brush on a second coat of this gesso, don't forget the sides and you will have a beautiful custom created canvas ready for your next painting, preferably in oils, then you will be a crazy Self-made artist like myself, well, that's what they say, I just go along with it.

It’s a small bottle, but goes a long way. Fries pretty quickly, no strong smells.

L'ho utilizzato sia per fare dipingere con l'acrilico come per dare un effetto texture ad un vaso di fiori e tutti e due sono venuti beneOttima qualità
