    I am reviewing this product as a white gesso. I had issues with this product not covering very well. I have worked with gesso and acrylic over the years and this acted more like a thin liquid acrylic. I am even wondering if the bottle was somehow labeled wrong. Just in case I missed something about this product- I decided on a 4-star rating. I can always use more white acrylic paint so nothing is wasted. It also has a strange smell similar to glue.

    I purchased this via a blog recommendation for priming silicone molds for acrylic paints. I had better luck simply using the paint alone than coating with this 1st.

    Haven’t painted for a while and this was recommended by a painting tips video on YouTube. Product was just what I was looking for, gives the paint something more to grab onto.

    The product is all that I wanted. It applies smoothly,dries quickly and is clear. I will probably never buy the non-clear type again. No odor,washes from my brush with warm water .Love it!

    This has a nice consistency to use right out of the bottle. Doesnt cover as well as Id like, when Im painting over something in order to change a painting - I need to apply multiple coats to cover something completely.

    I like this gesso because it is very smooth and covers well. A bit more expensive but if you dont need a large tub it works well.

    Liquitex clear gesso is a good product, easy to work with and does what it says it will do, however, this product came in a broken bucket and was spilling out into the box. This time the product performed differently than usual and instead of the clearness it was much cloudier. Granted clear gesso is inherently not 100% clear, especially with many applications. This time though, it dried much more opaque. Had to review this so late and was only able to use some of the gallon as the rest spilled everywhere and made an immense mess. Not the product’s fault but the fault is on the shipping. Amazon needs to make sure that they do not package things better so that damage like this doesnt happen again. Paid 60+ for a gallon and was only able to use less than a pint of it. Turns me off from using amazon again.

Liquitex offers the broadest range of acrylic mediums to inspire creativity at every stage of the painting process. Surface Prep Mediums are used to seal prime and add tooth (for color adhesion) to all surfaces such as canvas wood paper and metal. This same preparation is used for both acrylic and oil paint. Our professional gessoes usually take just one coat, and adding Liquitex Soft Body color to any gesso creates customized tints and primers. Liquitex Clear Gesso Surface Prep Medium is an ideal high tooth for pastel oil pastel graphite and charcoal.  Excellent ground for acrylic and oil paint.  Mix with acrylic color to have a tinted ground.  Dries clear to translucent depending on thickness.  Excellent base coat primer for many applications, including murals. Can be applied to any material or surface that will accept traditional acrylic media, such as canvas, paper, wood, etc.  Liquitex Surface Prep Mediums are lightweight, non-toxic, and dry to a water-resistant, non-yellowing surface. APPLICATION: For canvas, paper, wood, or any clean porous non-oily surface. Sizes and primes while maintaining the original appearance of the surface. Provides paper with good tooth for chalk and oil pastel techniques. Mix with a very small amount of transparent or translucent acrylic color to tint the ground, while maintaining transparency.
