FAQs

Q: What are primed boards?
A: Primed boards are wooden panels or boards coated with a layer of primer, usually gesso, to create a smooth and durable surface for painting. This primer layer also helps to prevent paint from seeping into the wood and allows for better adhesion of the paint.

Q: What types of primed boards are available?
A: Our collection includes birch panels, MDF boards, and canvas-covered boards in various sizes and thicknesses to suit different preferences and painting styles.

Q: Can I use primed boards for different mediums?
A: Yes, primed boards are versatile and can be used for various mediums such as acrylics, oils, and even mixed media. However, it is important to choose the appropriate board for the specific medium to ensure the best results.

Q: How do I prepare a primed board for painting?
A: Before painting on a primed board, it is recommended to lightly sand the surface to create a smoother texture. You can also add an additional layer of gesso if you prefer a more textured surface. Make sure to let the board dry completely before painting.

Q: Are primed boards suitable for professional artists?
A: Yes, primed boards are a popular choice for professional artists as they offer a sturdy and archival surface for their artwork. They are also great for creating a consistent look and size for a series of paintings.
