Heavy Body Gesso – Professional Artist Surface Prep Medium

Global Colours Professional Heavy Body Gesso is produced with 100% Acrylic Polymer. Suitable for both acrylic and oil surface preparation. A dimensional primer with great tooth and adhesion, when dry has excellent flexibility, water and UV resistance.

Surfaces should be free from dust and grease before application with a broad brush. Can be thinned up to 25% with water to allow for absorption into surfaces of varying porosity (eg. concrete, canvas, plaster, etc.) . To prepare for oil painting, apply a minimum of 3 coats of Gesso. Allow 2 – 4 hours between coats depending on your weather conditions. Do not use below 12°C ambient temperature. Clean all equipment with soap and water without delay.

Global Colours Acrylic Paints, Mediums, and Gesso Primers have been handmade in our Marrickville factory in Sydney, Australia since 1992.
