> 3 dayI want sure what to expect, but Im quite pleased. I havent used this paper worth oil paints yet, but have used with acrylic. It can handle quite a bit of paint and remain flat. It was such a bargain that I didnt mind letting my niece use some when she was visiting me. Shes only 7 and noticed the difference in painting on an appropriate surface compared to what kids are normally given.

> 3 dayThe like new described this as only exterior packaging damage. I expected the wrapping, off, or minor imperfection. However, it arrived without glue binding, completely unbound as 27 not 30 individual sheets. The sheets were bent at the corners. I haven’t used this type of paper yet, but I’ve been pleased with the quality and value of other Canson XL pads.

> 3 dayIn the past, I was using the Canson multimedia pads for everything, since I worked in acrylic, but recently I saw this in a store and had to try it. The paper is very thick, with a texture that looks just like canvas when painted on. It holds up well to acrylic, especially if you put down a layer of paint first before using watery colors or painting too heavily all in one spot. The paper straightens and flattens out well once it tries even if it warps slightly when wet if not taped down. I will caution that with the painters tape I used, the surface of the paper tore when I removed it. This wasnt a big deal, and Ill simply use a different painters tape or pin it down with other methods, but its something to keep in mind. Though this paper is very sturdy, its surface is delicate and prone to scraping, becoming overly wet, rubbing, or tape, and once it tears/wears off, that pretty canvas texture is gone in that area and the paper becomes much weaker because the underside that isnt treated is exposed. What I will be experimenting with is coating the surface with acrylic gesso before painting, which gets rid of the canvas texture but makes it a lot stronger and more rigid, which might be preferable for certain projects.
