Black Gesso / Primer

Using Black gesso primer before pouring Resin is a great way to prepare your surface, especially when working with porous materials like wood or canvas Or Mdf. Here’s how and why you should use gesso primer in your resin projects:

#Benefits of Using Gesso Primer

1. Sealing Porous Surfaces: Gesso seals porous materials, preventing them from absorbing the resin. This helps ensure a smooth finish and reduces the risk of bubbles.

2. Enhancing Adhesion: Gesso provides a better surface for the resin to adhere to, reducing the chances of delamination.

3. Smoothing Out Imperfections: It can help fill in small imperfections or textures on your surface, creating a more even base for the resin.

4. Improving Color Depth: If you’re adding color or artwork under the resin, gesso can enhance the vibrancy of the colors.

#How to Use Gesso Primer Before Pouring Resin

1. Prepare Your Surface: Ensure the surface you’re working with is clean and free of dust or debris.

2. Apply Gesso: Using a brush or sponge, apply a thin, even layer of gesso over your surface. You can use multiple coats for better coverage, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next.
