Clear Transparent

Pigment: None

Designed to be applied to a coloured surface where the artist wishes to preserve or enhance a supports’ natural colour such as: raw linen or wooden panels. The support becomes slightly darker because of the Clear Transparent NAAP application.

Technical Data:

• If areas of the finished work are left revealing primer or unpainted areas, the artist can be assured the primer is lightfast in its own respect and the exposed primer will not fade over time.

• The formulation of my NAAP products act as a buffer to keep the oil paint and the support separate from one another while at the same time providing excellent adhesion.

• Ground marble dust is used to improve the adhesion.

All NAAP products dry and behave with the same qualities of our existing white:

• Dry in a timely manner. Allow at least an hour between coats.
• Superior adhesion.
• Designed to preserve the luscious surface of a properly prepared canvas for oil paints.

Mixing Points:

• All the above shades are intermixable.
• All can also have acrylic paint applied if needed.

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!
