Canvas & Linen

Belgian Linen - Berge: Every Berge roll is first double-coated with a secret formula of acrylic size and fully dried prior to the ground being applied. It is advisable to lightly sand all brands of pre-primed linens with fine sandpaper prior to painting to provide a ‘fresh tooth’ for the best paint/substrate adhesion. Belgian linens are available in both a traditional non-toxic oil and a universal prime with a  secret recipe between oil and acrylic that enables oil to wet and bond to the linen. Note that all Berge linens come in a full double width of 2.2 metres for minimum waste when stretching large works. Standard roll size is 10 metres.
