I'm disappointed and upset that it wasn't cheap

I bought this product in May. When I opened it in June it was hard and unusable. I'm disappointed and annoyed because it wasn't cheap. I recommend that you buy what you need from an art store so that you can return it for a refund if something is wrong with it.

Pros
  • Colors
Cons
  • Some bugs

The perfect all-in-one gel medium!

I love all of these Art Basic products. I love their 3D matte gel, it gives a nice pasty texture to the canvas, ATC etc. I wanted something with a finer texture so I ordered this one. Perfect. You can use it through a stencil, as a glue, for collages, etc. This is the perfect matte gel carrier for all purposes.

Pros
  • Art and Craft Supplies
Cons
  • No Instructions

The perfect gesso. Dries fast, smooth, barely visible.

I am happy with my choice of cast. This one seems perfect. Dries quickly, not entirely sure, but a little good so you can see it's there. With double-sided coloring pages, if you want to use something wet, you need to find them. It comes with an applicator that is easy to apply and quick to insert. I really have absolutely no complaints about him. I don't always use gesso, but when I run out I'll buy it again.

Pros
  • Arts, Crafts & Sewing
Cons
  • Base Required
