Review on Liquitex Professional Super Surface Medium by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent paintability

I'm not sure if this is the right product but this program won't let me undo this post. So this post is suitable for both regular and extra heavy cast. The product I received was Liquitex Super Heavy Body Primer but I have used both. This product (and regular gesso) was excellent and great for scraping off extra layers on store bought stretched canvases as well as creating textures. I find that if you really like the caking of oil paint, I highly recommend adding more gesso. I believe if I don't do this the color will still bleed through. For me I use polycanvas so it doesn't matter. But I still do it to keep the saturation of the pigment over the canvas and plaster. You can also use regular gesso. So if it's the regular gesso this post is about, it will work just as well!
