Description
Claessens canvases are made with a high-quality, 100-year-old process that includes sizing with a synthetic PVA glue, application of a coat of acrylic-bound titanium white paint, and drying in a hot-air oven. Claessens canvases are suitable for both oil paint and acrylic paint, and are a good choice for artists who want a durable canvas with a smooth surface.
With over 100 years of experience in crafting the finest quality
artist canvases, Claessens is recognised worldwide as a leader in
the field. Each Claessens canvas undergoes a rigorous treatment and
production process in order to meet different requirements for
artists.First, all raw canvases are sized with a synthetic PVA
glue. For universal primed canvases, the next step involves
applying a coat of acrylic-bound titanium white paint to the canvas
by means of a knife. As the primer and coating are water-based,
these universal primed canvases are dried in a hot-air oven, where
the water can evaporate more quickly.Universal primed Claessens
canvases are suitable for both oil paint and acrylic paint.For a
