Michael Harding Non Absorbent Acrylic Primer

MICHAEL HARDING PRIMER

Non-Absorbent Acrylic Primer (NAAP) allows artists to quickly prime a canvas or other supports while leaving an inviting paint surface that is luscious and moist in appearance.

Although this product is non-absorbing it will provide a strong bond to the layers of paint applied with just enough tooth so as not to be greasy in feel. Painting after using this non-absorbent acrylic primer gives oil paint colours that look as though you have just brushed them on to your canvas and a long-lasting support that will not decay over the years.

Now available in nine colours.  Larger sizes available upon request.

Application

Apply 2 coats. The first coat may be applied 25% diluted with water to increase flow and coverage if required. Apply a second coat once the first coat is touch dry (approx. 1 hour). This product may be applied to linen, wood, MDF and other supports to produce a strong, flexible, permanent, highly pigmented white ground. Suitable for as a ground for both acrylic and oil paint.

May even be applied over inexpensive standard primed canvases to render them non-absorbent!

Do not apply over rabbit skin/hide glue or to unsound supports such as cardboard and flimsy supports!
