Tighten and save my Oil on canvas

Worked just like disturbed. My canvas painting was sagging and dangling. The creator of a large chain of arts and crafts stores suggested I find this product. Luckily Revane wears it. I sterilized it in layers in the areas that need it. The canvas slowly leveled out as I added more product until it looked good enough. I'll give it a tag and see how it plays out on screen. My painting is 2 x 3 feet. 4 ounces is only 1/5 less. no it works

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

It got worse

I pasted this to the back of a late 19th century painting. The canvas had a large loop on the surface. I sprayed what I thought was a light, even coat onto the back of the painting. I didn't oversaturate it in any way. A few minutes later the canvas was stretched! I was very impressed with the results. And then I woke up the next morning and was very disappointed to see that the picture was MUCH more wavy than before I applied this spray.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Price

Good for waves but not great

So it's ok. It's not too surprising or anything, but it's ok if you're looking at a little ripple and stretching the canvas again isn't worth the hassle. It's like a last resort. First, this thing smells disgusting. It has a distinct odor of cat urine. No one knows what's inside, but the smell will dissipate as it dries, so at least it's there. Secondly, after the first use, the spray pump is hopelessly clogged. Do yourself a favor and buy a stain/tint brush from the barber and use it to…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure
