It was nice
Would recommend to use it on thicker paper if you do use it on paper. However on a canvas it worked liked a charm

L'indispensable pour préparer ses toiles
Un gesso très épais mais facile à poser, personnellement je l'étale au couteau et le résultat est parfait.

Ok
Bra att veta om man ska använda den på canvasduk är att den blir väldigt sträv efter påstrykning. Behöves sandpappra med fint sandpapper efteråt annars förstörs penslarna när man ska måla.

Thick is good.
I can't believe all the negative reviews. Thick, really? Who would want watered-down gesso? I thin it down by about 20% by pouring out enough to fill 3/4 of a 1 pint wide mouth mason jar, then adding water and leaving a small amount of air in the neck. I make 3 jars and seal with cling film and blue masking tape. I add 1/4 cup hot water to the 64 oz container and shake well. I use this first. I usually coat 8 24"x24" canvas panels so there's not much left over; that said, I've had no problems using gesso stored over 6 months. It's fabulously thick and creamy. A wonderful product and a good price.

Très agréable à employer
Très bon produit à diluer avec peinture acrylique qui permet de bien travailler la peinture sans qu'elle sèche trop vite

Not airtight
Content spilled over in and damaged my other purchases Amazon had brilliantly put together in the same package. Result: 2 books damaged and will be thrown away. How environmentally friendly is that?
