Excellent primer for encaustic work
No terrible smell, goes on easy and make a nice surface for encaustic wax painting. R&F is the premier encaustic supplier imo. There are not many and their hand made paints are excellent but expensive.

R&F is quality as always
Product is top quality and performs as described. Most R&F products are really good though not cheap. If you are serious about your art, you need to buy quality products so you won’t be “sadly surprised” by cut rate junk that could ruin your work.

Always have gesso on hand
Jut a wanna-be encaustic artist, so figured having gesso on hand would be a wise thing to do. So far I have only used encaustic boards, so no gesso needed, but this should provide the capability of painting on wood and other surfaces. R&F is good quality!

Great gesso!
If you keep the jar closed tightly, this product has a long shelf life. I use a roller to apply to birchwood panels.

Really good quality gesso
This is really good quality encaustic gesso - it worked exactly as I thought it would. Encaustic painting, however, is really difficult and did not work as I expected.

Excellent produit
C'est le gesso pour la peinture au medium encaustique qu'il faut. Comme on ne peut utiliser de gesso acrylique pour ce type d'application, on n'a donc pas le choix. Il est facile à appliquer sur le bois, sèche assez vite et se ponce bien avant de recevoir le medium et la peinture.
