Review: USED ON CANVAS BEFORE PAINTING 🖌🎨 - 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 Rough Its 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 Gesso For Priming There Canvas. I Hope someone has Found This Review Helpful ? Thank you.
Review: Excellently packaged and great product - I noted a few comments by other about flimsy, leaking tub but mine arrived in perfect condition. I have used the gesso once and it covered well, just what I wanted and a good price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If acrylic goes onto most surfaces why do I need a gesso?**
A: While acrylics adhere to most surfaces, some offer more 'grip'. Gesso prepares surfaces for a long-term bond, improving absorbency, tooth, and sealing out impurities. Without sealing, water or colour can leach through, causing discolouration.

**Q: What is a ground?**
A: A ground is the first base layer you paint onto the virgin surface, and the term for the material used. Artists traditionally use a gesso, but you can use a range of different mediums as a ground. We talk about a good ground adding ‘teeth’/’tooth.’

**Q: How do I create a coloured gesso?**
A: If you want a bespoke colour, simply make your own. Select your acrylic colour - Professional Soft Body, Heavy Body and Basics acrylics have the ideal consistency - and mix with your acrylic gesso or medium to create the effect you want.

**Q: What's the point of your black and gray gessoes?**
A: These gessoes offer ready-mixed, pigmented bases for your artwork, allowing for instant colour coverage and texture. They contain a blend of pigments to give a neutral opaque base which gives depth, instantly eliminating your surface colour,

**Q: Are Liquitex gessoes just for acrylics or can I use them with oils too?**
A: Liquitex Professional Gessoes give a lasting, archival base perfect for use with oils when dry, helping to maintain the longevity of your work.
