Liberon Ready Made Gesso
 Liberon Ready Made Gesso is a traditional Gesso preparation that is ready to use as a surface coating prior to gilding, to repair gilt frames, or as a glue to join broken pieces of old gesso or plaster and then fill any missing parts.
Performance How To Use Tips Preparation
Heat using a "Bain Marie" or similar device until the Gesso becomes warm and fluid.
Application
Apply successive coats with a brush until required level is reached. Each coat can be applied as soon as the previous one is cold. After a few hours the Gesso will set hard and can then be smoothed carefully with a very fine abrasive.
When using the Gesso with metal leaf wet the Gesso to reactivate its adhesive properties prior to laying the metal leaf. |
