Mont Marte Black Gesso provides a flexible matt finish suitable for priming and sealing canvas, paper, board and other semi-porous surfaces. Gesso provides a slightly toothed surface that allows oil and acrylic to adhere well to your painting support. For best results apply 2-3 thin coats of Black Gesso.
- may be sanded in between coats for a super smooth surface which is great for detailed works
- adds dramatic contrast and interesting effects that regular white gesso cannot achieve
- may be diluted with water.
Handy Hints
- Store in a cool, dry area (away from direct sunlight and excessive cold or heat)
- Pour or scoop gesso into another container before use, rather than using directly from the tub. Always use a clean utensil or painting accessory when placing gesso into another container to avoid contamination
- Re place seal and then tightly close the lid after use to keep gesso fresh
