## Overview

Grumbacher ACRY Gesso PT is a premium acrylic-based surface primer designed to prepare porous materials like canvas, wood, plaster, and concrete for oil and acrylic painting. Its creamy, tintable formula is water-thinnable for versatile application and delivers a smooth matte finish that enhances paint adhesion and vibrancy. Made in the USA, this gesso is favored by artists seeking a reliable, professional-grade base that’s easy to work with and perfect for a variety of creative projects.

## Description

Grumbacher Gesso prepares a number of porous substrates, such as canvas, wood, cardboard, plaster, and concrete, for painting with oil or acrylic colors. Not appropriate for egg tempera or gilding. Stir well and apply with brush to a clean surface. May be thinned with water. Sand between coats if desired to avoid wicking. May be tinted with acrylic colors. Do not mix with or apply over turpentine or oils. Available in 16oz. and 32 oz. jars. Made in USA.

Review: I have always used a different brand of Gesso. Someone recommended trying Grumbacher Gesso (Hyplar) Artists' Acrylic & Oil Paint Medium, that they had made the switch and I might like it too. I ordered a jar. I love it! It is thick and creamy, not chalky like some, not thick as mud as some and not a water liquid as some gessos are. It is a nice white, creamy like a medium body paint, easy to work with and also works well as a 'white' paint. Very happy with it and will be the only gesso I purchase from now own. If it were in the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, it would be the 'just right', perfection that was sought after!

This stuff is amazing. It's very thick and goes on like butter. I had to add a little water to the canvas to help it spread. So a little goes a long way. Because of the consistency it would be great for adding a textured surface for painting on. Awesome product
