Primer’s Role in Surface Preparation

Preparing a surface for painting is one of the most critical steps in achieving a professional result, and primer is central to this process. By filling in pores and leveling out textures, primer creates a smooth and consistent surface that allows paint to glide on effortlessly. It enhances adhesion, ensuring the paint bonds securely to the surface, which is especially important for materials like wood, metal, or unprimed canvas. Primer also reduces the risk of discolouration by blocking stains or oils from bleeding through the paint layers. Skipping primer often leads to uneven coverage and a less durable finish, while taking the time to prime ensures the artwork or project looks polished and stands the test of time.

Gesso: The Artist’s Go-To Primer

For artists working on canvas or paper, gesso is an indispensable tool for preparing surfaces. This versatile primer creates a smooth, absorbent base that enhances the adhesion of acrylic and oil paints. Gesso also seals porous surfaces, preventing paint from soaking in and ensuring even coverage. It can be applied in multiple layers to create a textured or polished surface, depending on the desired effect. Tinted gesso is another option, allowing artists to start with a coloured base that complements their work. Whether you’re creating bold, abstract designs or delicate, detailed pieces, gesso ensures the paint adheres beautifully and maintains its vibrancy, making it a must-have for achieving professional results.
