Liquitex Basics Gesso Surface Prep Medium, 16-oz

Received this on 8 Sept 2023 The date of import is Dec 2020 Too old..quality is bound to suffer

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

High quality and price was great. Also the customer service gets an A+++. Had to return one as it was damaged and leaking and I received the replacement before I even returned damaged one 2 days later!!

Great Product

Been using Liquitex products for years …never disappointed! Good value and this gesso does the job perfectly.
