1. May be sanded in between coats for a super smooth surface which is great for detailed works
2. Adds dramatic contrast and interesting effects that regular white gesso cannot achieve
3. May be diluted with water.

Handy Hints

1. Store in a cool, dry area (away from direct sunlight and excessive cold or heat)
2. Pour or scoop gesso into another container before use, rather than using directly from the tub. Always use a clean utensil or painting accessory when placing gesso into another container to avoid contamination
3. Re-place seal and then tightly close the lid after use to keep gesso fresh

Use with

• Mont Marte Gesso Brushes

1. Ideal for building paint layers or creating textured artworks
2. Dries to a hard, white finish
3. Acrylic or oil paint can be used over the top, or mix in acrylic paint for a pastel colour
4. Apply with a palette knife to build 3D effects and texture
5. Build depth by adding layers once paste is dry
6. Embed small objects into paste for extra effect
7. Wait approx. 30mins of drying time for every 5mm of product

Handy hints:

• Achieve desired thickness by building up layers (allowing each to dry before applying the next)
• A hair dryer can be used to speed up drying process, allow final layer to air dry (to minimise chance of cracking)
• Clean up with warm soapy water while wet
