Claessens Double Oil Primed Linen Roll #13 - Very Fine Texture 82 TVJ2_A6CWA37

Claessens Oil Primed Linens made with Meticulous Craftsmanship. Claessens Linen Rolls provide artists with optimal professional quality in painting surfaces and craftsmanship. Each specific primed linen type is passed through its own manufacturing steps and quality control, resulting in the premium painting surfaces Claessens is renowned for. After receiving the raw linens, quality control carefully inspects the entire surface for weaving faults. Abnormally thick threads are scrupulously removed. Next, two layers of synthetic adhesive are applied. Each layer is dried on the canvas in a warm-air oven. For oil primed canvases, zinc white is as the first coat, bound with linseed oil; carefully applied to the glued linen with trowel-like knives. Then the canvas is sanded, and a layer with a titanium white base is applied in the same fashion, then placed in a drying room for 3 days to air dry naturally. After the final coating is applied, the canvas is moved back to the drying room for 10 days. The finished canvases are then again carefully inspected one last time before they are placed on rolls and stocked in the warehouse. These stringent, painstaking steps create an archival, exceptional linen canvas worthy of your finest masterpiece!
