Medium Density Fiberboard is an engineered wood product. It is formed by compressing wood fibers and combining them with wax or resin using high temperature and pressure.

We have used the same brand/manufacturer of MDF for almost 15 years. This brand of MDF meets a wide range of green and sustainable product standards including but not limited to SFI® Sustainable Forestry Initiative and EPA TSCA Title VI (TSCA) initiatives. The MDF that we use is made from "high-quality inland species of western softwoods known for their low abrasive content and light color".

Raymar uses a specially formulated, pH neutral EVA (derivative of PVA).  It is water soluble until dry, at which point, the adhesion is permanent.  Our surfaces are not manufactured to be removed at a later date.

All of our surfaces arrive to us already primed.  We do not prime any of our surfaces in our facility. 

Claessens uses zinc white, bound with linseed oil as a primer.  The surface is air dried, sanded and then a coating layer (or 2) of titanium white is added.  The zinc is never used as the only pigment, but as a small part.

Artfix linens have an infinitesimal quantity of zinc in their priming, which does not affect its archival rating.

No, Claessens transitioned away from rabbit skin glue to synthetic PVA glue for sizing in the 1980’s.

It is not recommended to paint acrylic over oil.  Acrylic paint will not stick to the oil priming and will eventually peel away or flake off.

Yes, we offer several surfaces that have acrylic priming.  The 56MC Medium Cotton, 23SC Smooth Cotton, and the Artfix® L22U Linen panels are all acrylic primed.

Yes, this paper is internally sized, rather than primed.  It can therefore accept a variety of media including oil, acrylic, watercolor and drawing media.  No preparation is needed is needed to use the surface, although you can add additional layers of acrylic gesso or oil ground to reduce tooth or brush drag if desired.

No. Our wet painting carriers are designed to hold only panels NOT stretched canvases. Each carrier can hold up to 6 panels that are 1/8" or thinner, 2 panels back to back in the 3 slot molded track. Panels between 1/8" to 1/4" thick, such as our 3/16" Gatorfoam panels, will only fit one panel per slot, reducing the total carrier capacity to 3 panels.

Panels or canvases thicker than 1/4" are too thick to fit into the molded slots of the painting carriers.
