Rabbit Skin Glue 1kg
Gesso - make your own
Traditional base coat for gilded frames. Once hard and smoothed, coat with bole or Gesso-Bole.
GESSO RECIPE:
Fill a 200g coffee jar with cold water. Add 7 heaped teaspoons of rabbit skin glue granules, and leave to soak for at least 4 hours.
Heat in a double glue pot, but NEVER allow to boil. Strain.
Add 6-7 heaped tablespoons of whiting - stir gently to avoid bubbles. Strain.
Will keep for up to two weeks in fridge. Apply with round Gesso brush - as any metal on the brush may corrode & spoil the gesso.
