The Prima proved to be easy to use and a good quality. This is a good value for the money if you only gesso a little, but I needed a much bigger container. Review: Good for texture - Used this to create texture for moss covered brickwork in a watercolour painting. It worked very well although I am not expert artist. ## Features - White opaque matte and ground acrylic! works well on canvas wood paper metal chipboard fabric plastic and more! dries quickly - Works well for a variety of color products providing a smooth non-yellowing chalky background - Gesso is water-based but permanent and flexible after drying - Will mix with pigments or acrylic paints to create a range of customized colored grounds - This package contains one 8 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00MX78PRI | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,703 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #217 in Art Paints | | Brand | PRIMA MARKETING INC | | Brand Name | PRIMA MARKETING INC | | Color | White | | Colour | White | | Container Type | Can | | Coverage | 1 | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 592 Reviews | | Dry Time In Hours | 4 | | Finish Type | Matte | | Finish type | Matte | | Full Cure Time | 2 Hours | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00655350961442 | | Included Components | Paper | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Is Waterproof | False | | Item Form | Gel | | Item Type Name | Heavy Gesso | | Item Volume | 8.5 Fluid Ounces | | Item Weight | 11.2 Ounces | | Item volume | 8.5 Fluid Ounces | | Manufacturer | Prima Marketing | | Model Name | 655350961442 | | Model Number | 961442 | | Paint Type | Acrylic | | Part Number | 961442 | | Size | 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Dishwasher Safe | | Special features | Dishwasher Safe | | Specific Uses For Product | Dry Sanding, Personal, Business, Amateur | | Surface Recommendation | Paper | | UPC | 685239158434 655350961442 | | Unit Count | 8.5 Fluid Ounces | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** PRIMA MARKETING INC - **Colour:** White - **Finish type:** Matte - **Item volume:** 8.5 Fluid Ounces - **Size:** 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) ## Images ![961442 Art Basics Heavy Gesso, 8.5-Ounce, White - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Gi+ERUJ9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Gesso If You Don’t Use A Lot Of Gesso. Otherwise, There Are Larger Jars Available. *by J***S on 14 May 2025* I was almost out of Heavy Gesso, so I ordered this for next day delivery until my order from the art store arrived. The Prima proved to be easy to use and a good quality. This is a good value for the money if you only gesso a little, but I needed a much bigger container. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for texture *by D***E on 27 September 2021* Used this to create texture for moss covered brickwork in a watercolour painting. It worked very well although I am not expert artist. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastico! *by B***O on 6 June 2019* Amo questa marca, ancora di più questo gesso bianco! Io lo uso per fare stencil in rilievo nei miei progetti di Mixed Madia Art, ho visto che può essere usato anche come base sui fogli dei quaderni per non far passare i prodotti oppure se si usano acquarelli per evitare che si deformino le pagine. ## Frequently Bought Together - Prima Marketing 961442 Art Basics Heavy Gesso, 8.5-Ounce, White - Prima Marketing 655350961459 Medium, 8.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Black - The Crafter's Workshop Gesso Medium, Surface Preparation and Primer, Sealer for Canvas, Paper, Wood, Provides Sizing for Acrylic or Oils, Gesso, 8-oz, Clear --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/260033414-961442-art-basics-heavy-gesso-8-5-ounce-white](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/260033414-961442-art-basics-heavy-gesso-8-5-ounce-white) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
