Description
This is a description of Claessens canvases, which are made of 100% linen and are primed with a titanium white paint. Claessens canvases are suitable for both oil and acrylic paint and are wide enough to be used for large paintings.
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
