To ensure good paint adhesion and consistent application, when using Utrecht Oil Priming White (Item No: 13110) according to package directions (diluted 2 parts primer to 1 part thinner) allow the priming to cure 14 days before painting. The addition of Utrecht Alkyd Painting and Glazing Medium (Item No: 11412) to Priming White can permit use of newly primed canvases in about 2 days; use 4 parts Oil Priming White to 2 parts mineral spirits/turpentine to 1 part Alkyd Medium. Drying time may vary depending on the temperature and humidity of the studio. Back to Top.
