Use the Clear Gesso by Prima as a sealer for beautiful texture and as a glue for adding art ingredients to a gorgeous canvas. This clear, matte, ground acrylic works well as a primer for most surfaces including wood, paper, metal, fabric, plastic and more. Gesso is water-based, but permanent after drying and will mix well with pigments, or acrylic paints to create a range of customized colored grounds. Included is one 8.5 fl. oz. jar of Clear Gesso that dries quickly, is non-toxic and is archival-safe.
