About this product:

• Designed for Metalpoint: This liquid acrylic ground is specially formulated to prepare surfaces for traditional metalpoint drawing (silverpoint, copperpoint, etc.). It is also ideal for pencils and other drawing tools;

• Versatile Medium Support: Beyond metal styluses, it improves surface grip and reduces paper absorbency, allowing graphite, colored pencils, ink, and markers to glide on smoothly and look vibrant;

• Multi-Surface Use: Can be applied to a wide variety of surfaces, including paper (heavyweight, hot-press watercolor paper is recommended), primed canvas, wood, or any surface suitable for water-based paints;

• Easy to Tint: The ground is opaque white, but you can easily tint it by adding a small amount of GOLDEN "Fluid Acrylics" without losing its original properties;

• One Coat is Enough: In most cases, you only need to apply a single thin layer;

• Ready to Use & Odorless: Ready to use straight from the bottle with no unpleasant or strong smell;

• Easy Cleanup: Clean your brushes and tools easily after use with just warm water and soap.
