Printed Linen and Cotton Canvas Fabric Lincot 2.10x1m

• Phoenix art canvases are made of cotton, linen, synthetic fiber and jute. All raw materials are high quality long fiber from Sinkiang and China, Harbin, India, Belgium, among others.
• The raw woven fabric is subjected to a strict inspection for each square meter to locate possible defects, test the tensile strength and check its grammage.
• Only the fabric that meets your standard will be able to proceed to the production line to have the four primer coats applied to the fabric, each of which has a different formula and fulfills a specific function:
• - The first layer is transparent glue and fills all the pores so that subsequent layers do not penetrate the fabric.
• - After drying the second coat is applied, the “base coat”.
• - Drying again, the third layer of primer is applied, which acts as a “face coating” that must also be dried.
• - The fourth layer is made taking into account the characteristics of the canvas and the needs of customers.
• - After the four primers and their respective drying, the canvases are sanded to eliminate the nodules and ensure that the surface is ready and ready to be painted.
• - The last step is the preparation of the rolls of fabric according to the needs of the clients.
• The production process is carried out using modern machines, although in accordance with traditional methods. Thus, we add precision, technique and tradition, reaching an excellent degree of quality.
• Characteristics of the universal primer for Phoenix canvases:
• - High quality acrylic primer, neutral, non-toxic, medium absorbency and suitable for both oil and acrylic.
• - Excellent surface texture with a full coverage primer.
• - The surface grain texture is eggshell with excellent brush feel and paint absorption.
• - The transparent glue layer both penetrates deep into the tissue and fixes the second layer.
• - Resin applied evenly in the primer increases its adhesion. The surface of the primer contains a highly absorbent powder that strongly fixes the components of the paint with this base.
• - The three layers of primer are resistant to oil or water, so they do not crack. To guarantee a short time for drying, proper use of the oil and the water used must be respected. The resin in the primer guarantees vivid and stable colours.
