Description
Claessens canvases are made with a high-quality, durable canvas that is primed with a water-based primer. The canvases are then painted with a titanium white paint, which makes them suitable for both oil and acrylic paints.
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
process to meet different artists' requirements.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 full description of the various
