Application:

  • Apply 2 coats. The first coat may be applied 25% diluted with water to increase flow and coverage if required.
  • Apply a second coat once the first coat is touch dry (approx.. 1 hour).
  • This product may be applied to linen, wood, MDF and other supports to produce a strong, flexible, permanent, highly pigmented ground.
  • Suitable for use as a ground for both acrylic and oil paint.
  • May be applied over standard primed canvases to render them non-absorbent.
  • Do not apply over rabbit skin/hide glue or to unsound supports such as cardboard and flimsy supports.

    Golden Pastel Ground (3.7L): Golden Pastel Ground (3.7L)
    R7,263 Discovery Miles 72 630 Ships in 7 - 14 working days

    Golden Acrylic Ground for Pastels is a 100% acrylic medium designed to prepare surfaces for the application of pastels, charcoal and other art media where a coarse tooth is desired. It contains finely ground sand (silica) in a pure acrylic emulsion. Acrylic Ground for Pastels can be applied to paper, canvas, wood or any primed support. This allows almost limitless applications for media typically confined to standard papers. ThinningDue to the weight of the solids in Acrylic Ground for Pastels, it is produced very thick, and does not come ready to brush-apply. Thin 20-40% with water to desired consistency. ApplicationApply with brush, paint-roller, spray equipment, squeegee or palette knife.Mix up only as much as is needed for one day's work, as the solids will settle rapidly and be extremely difficult to mix back into suspension.

The ability to squeeze the air out of your primer pouch for storage between uses, reduces the dried up edges that can crumble in and contaminate the rest of your gesso. Imagine no more dried up lumps in your primer!

    R209 Discovery Miles 2 090 Ships in 7 - 14 working days

    On some of these surfaces it is recommended a basecoat of the Polyurethane Primer (62.601) for best results. Premium colours are flexible and exceptionally durable and permit prolonged exposure to weather without fading or losing their brilliance.

    Premium colours have been formulated with micronized, permanent pigments and an extremely resistant, exterior grade hybrid resin-polyurethane base, which withstands impacts, resists chipping and cracking, as well as direct exposure to heat and outdoor elements without cracking or fading, and is fuel residue proof up to a least 35% Nitro.

    AV Premium colours have superior flow, they are self-levelling and brush on with exceptional ease. For
    airbrushing, the colours can be used directly from the bottle when using a nozzle size 0,3. For the metallic colours some dilution might be necessary, and for smaller nozzles (O.2mm or less) the use of the Reducer (62.068) may be required. The recommended compressor setting is 30-60psi (2-4 bar).

    The range consists of 20 bright opaque colours, 23 dazzling metallics and fluorescents, and 9 shimmering transparent Candy Colours. All colours are as suitable for detail work as for covering large surfaces and can be applied by brush as well as by airbrush.

    The range is complete with 8 auxiliary products including the Transparent Basecoat and the Reducer, Primer, Varnishes and Drying Retarder. For an automotive refinishing and as an extra protective final coating, we recommend a catalyzed urethane clear varnish (spray can or airbrush).
