I don't know if you've mentioned it before, but with oil paints do you paint in a ventilated space, is it necessary? For this reason I'm using acrylics now, but would like to use oils as well. Do you paint in the same way with acrylics. Thank you for your tutorials - I'm starting to watch them now and they are very helpful. You are an excellent painter!
Ben, does it matter if the board is bowing/bending a little after the gesso has dried? Or does it flatten out once it has dried? If not, can it flattened? Thanks.
I dont see the problem with not being a carpenter x3 Thanks for your impressions! Recently I had the exact problem of not doing a good base coat and all the oil got sucked into the panel. Means I do need some Gesso...
I am fine of your work. I watch all the video you made. I learned a lot form you. I never use gesso I have one doubt clear gesso and acrylic gesso both are work same ?
I don't know clear gesso but many you mean a product to seal off first. That is a primer. Than a couple of layers of Gesso. You can apply gesso that is ment for acryl paint. Gesso is a gypsum / plaster and the best ground for oil paint.
If I use only gesso process its not working? Se lo diré en español ya que creo que usted sabe español perfectamente. ¿Por qué usar la imprimación antes del gesso? Muchas gracias maestro, aprendo muchisimo de usted.
@@lustenhouwer naja, in jouw korte demonstratie is dat kleine stukje mdf al behoorlijk gebogen... Wordt dat weer beter na het drogen? Wat is met omgevings-vocht opname, als de achterkant niet behandeld is?
Do you ever use that binder or something else to glue your canvas to the MDF board or do you skip using the canvas altogether? Is your gesso acrylic or oil based?
You can use the binder as a glue to stick the canvas to the MDF board. But there are more products to do so. Gesso is water based but to be used for oil paint as well as acrylics.
Hallo Ben, misschien een tip om ook de achterzijde en zijkanten van het mdf te sealen met een watervast materiaal. MDF is nogal hydrofiel en in vochtige omgevingen kan onbehandeld mdf water opnemen en gaan zwellen. Hoe dan ook: goede video's! groet, Gerrit
Hi Ben, is that binder a PVA sealer, it looks like that especially when it dries transparent, we might use this to seal plaster board for the same reason to halt the absorption of paint into the plasterboard?
Thank you for these tips :) it’s helpful and i’d like to try MDF. Is the primer you use “Liant Caparol” ? And do you use it(binder) surface after finishing painting ?
I apply Caparol-Binder first. On top three layers of Gesso. After finishing the painting a retouching varnish ( after three weeks ). And after a year a final varnish.

Muchas gracias por tus consejos de todo tipo Ben. Siempre son verdaderamente útiles.
Gracias.
thanks! i will defo try to paint on a MDF
What is your binder brand and where do you buy it please! I have not seen this before listed on art supply. What would I search for?
Thank you
Dear Ben, thank you so much for your wonderful tutorials! Do you have any concerns about the long term durability of MDF?
To be honest I don't know.
Thank you very much. It is very helpful. :)
It is my pleasure

Acrylics need a different approach as it dries quicker. I am not so familiar with it although I used that tecnique years ago
@@lustenhouwer Thank you for your quick response.
Ben, does it matter if the board is bowing/bending a little after the gesso has dried? Or does it flatten out once it has dried? If not, can it flattened? Thanks.
My boards do not bend so much. Maybe the gesso I use is not very diluted with water.

Really important to seal off the panel
you should try painting on aluminium panels, two coats of lead white and your ready to go. It's archival and a great surface to paint on.
I am fine of your work. I watch all the video you made. I learned a lot form you.
I never use gesso I have one doubt clear gesso and acrylic gesso both are work same ?

Thank you for sharing your knowledge . I am so glad you replied Thank you.
잘 보고 배웁니다.....~^!^♥
indeed.
A weenie roller I never thought of that I’m going to do that next time
Have a try

¿Por qué usar la imprimación antes del gesso? Muchas gracias maestro, aprendo muchisimo de usted.
Es preciso la imprimación. Para evitar que el aceite de la pintura entre en la tabla. La imprimación cierre la tabla. Gesso chupa la pinura.
Dank u wel voor deze tips. Ik vraag me af of je de achterkant ook moet behandelen, dat houdt misschien krom trekken tegen?
Dank u wel. Voor de zekerheid jan de achterkant behandeld worden, zeker. ik doe dat want bij mij is het nog nooit krom getrokken.

Both sides should be painted to help with bowing or warping.

Dank je Gerrit. wellicht een goed idee. Tot nu toe nog geen problemen gehad maar inderdaad.
Do you put the primer on both sides or just one?
No, only on one side. The panel does not bend.
Hi Ben, is that binder a PVA sealer, it looks like that especially when it dries transparent, we might use this to seal plaster board for the same reason to halt the absorption of paint into the plasterboard?
It is a synthetic resin dispersion. You might use similar products to seal an absorbing surface indeed.

@@lustenhouwer Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. :)
Ben Lustenhouwer , thank you!!!
Hello ,Why do you use rabbit glue for underlayment?
Thanks for your tips
I don't. It is more work but maybe better.
Is it okay to p prepare the board with the 4mm thick plywood? If not, what is the disadvantage?
Just have a try. It depends on the density. I never used plywood.
I love you 😍 انا احبك
