Art Spectrum Colourfix Primer is a fine tooth, quick drying acrylic primer which bonds agressively to practically any clean, dry surface - all types of papers (300 gsm or heavier recommended), canvas, card, ply, plastic, glass, timber, ceramic and metal.

Suitable for a wide range of applications including pastels, charcoal, pencils, inks, acrylics, gouache or even watercolours.

Transparent, lightfast and age-resistant primer for acrylic and oil colours as well as pastels. The elastic film of the clear gesso dries matt and is water-resistant.    Application:   Transparent primer is ready for use, may also be diluted with water (max.10%) and  should be applied 3-4 times with a brush on your surface.The temperature of the object should not be less than 8°C. For extremely absorbent surfaces like a natural canvas  a sizing with size/pre-primer is recommended.    May be tinted with transparent acrylic colours.   Available in 500 ml jar

Dries to a completely transparent finish, as this is a primer with no pigment.

Michael Harding Non-Absorbent Acrylic Primer ensures a smooth paint surface and will provide a strong bond to the layers of paint applied, with just enough tooth so as not to be greasy in feel.

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.

If areas of the finished work are left revealing primer or unpainted areas, the artist can be assured the primer is lightfast in its own respect and the exposed primer will not fade over time. All the above shades are intermixable. All can also have acrylic paint applied if needed.

White Gesso Primer is a unique formulation which needs no dilution. This product is highly adhesive and is ideal for directly sealing all semi-absorbent surfaces before applying colour – both acrylics and oils. Daler Rowney’s White Gesso Primer is suitable for both interior and exterior applications. It dries quickly to produce a matt white surface, with a slight tooth, which is easily sanded for highly detailed work.
