Description

White, opaque, lightfast and age-resistant primer for acrylic and oil colours with an absorbent character.
The elastic film dries matte and is resistant to turpentine and water.
Ready to use, but can be diluted 10% with water.
An economical alternative to Schmincke Primer 1 - it is not as white, nor as concentrated, nor does it provide quite the same surface as Primer 1, but performs better than acrylc gesso as a base for oil colour painting.
Strongly absorbent surfaces such as raw canvas should be sized before priming.

ABOUT SCHMINCKE
Schmincke began at the end of the 19th Century, when the colour chemists Josef Horadam and Hermann Schmincke saw an opportunity to provide the artists of the day with a truly superior artists oil, and so set out to Italy where traditional studio painting was still taught, in search of the nearly forgotten resin oil formulations.
In 1881, at the Academy of Fine Art in Florence, they secured the precision formulations of the Professor Cesare Mussini, a guardian of the old masters techniques, and on these formulations, the two founded their manufacturing establishment under the name H.Schmincke and Co.

In subsequent years, artists’ colours to suit all techniques were introduced, such as Josef Horadam’s patent watercolours of 1892. Through the entire 20th century, every generation of owner has lead the company to its current position as one of the worlds leading manufacturers of finest artists’ colour.
