Liquitex Professional Gesso Surface Prep Medium, 237ml (8-oz), Black

YES, does the job!

Good consitancy... dries nice and clear with out too much shine

A few decades ago, Liquitex, and other brands, were pushing Acrylic Gesso, which is what this is. Liquitex used a lot more acrylic and less filler (white pigment with chalk or something like silica.) So it was less opaque, less absorbent than traditional gesso, and more flexible. 2-3 coats to cover a panel. If you are looking for a great dry, absorbent gesso, with less acrylic and more white coverage, usually one coat, Dan Smith makes the best gesso Ive ever used. (Dan Smiths Worlds best gesso)

Like how easy it is to use. Also enjoy working on panels primed with this product.

Just what I needed!!!

never used it before it works good

Great availability

Unfortunately, I thought this was white gesso and was initially disappointed to see that I had gotten clear. They need to do a better job of clarifying which option is which! That being said - I had some white acrylic paint and decided to add some to this before priming my miniatures and that turned out to be an excellent solution. It works really well and I will probably buy much more of this in the future. Its very gritty and leaves a texture on your work almost like fine sandpaper, so they do suggest sanding it if that bothers you, but for what I was painting it didnt bother me at all. People say gesso is so expensive and I tried making my own according to recipes found online, but they never worked so I decided to test the real thing instead. And, imo - its kind of expensive, but worth the expense to me because the homemade recipes were just clumpy crap. This is superior so - you get what you are willing to pay for.
