ART SPECTRUM COLOURFIX PRIMERS
Art Spectrum® Colourfix™ Primer is a fine tooth, quick drying acrylic primer which bonds aggressively to practically any clean, dry surface – all types of papers (300 gsm or heavier recommended), canvas, card, ply, plastic, glass, timber, ceramic and metal. Art Spectrum® Colourfix™ Primer can be applied with brushes, sponges, rollers etc. straight from the pot. 20 colours are available, including Clear*. All colours can be intermixed, or tinted with Art Spectrum Inks or Gouache, to create new shades. The Clear Colourfix™ Primer allows the natural surface or underlying colours to remain visible, whilst providing extra tooth for more overlays. Use Clear and other Art Spectrum® Colourfix™ Primers for mixed media techniques and experimental art and craft works. It can even be used as an adhesive for collage. All colours are available in 250ml pots. Black, White and Clear are also available in 1 litre tubs.

"Great pastel ground"
Most consistent ground I’ve used. Grit is good for fine work.

"Art Spectrum colourfix ground"
I find the AS colorful grounds - colored and clear to be as advertised - durable, flexible, texturable and great for pastels. Apply thin or thick and they work just as well. Mixed with watercolor paint, they can be applied by a small brush for detail work or with 2-3" brush or pallet knife for large area coverage. The beauty of mixing in the watercolor is that it is then bound and won't move if going over with watercolor or pastel. Of course, the other side is you can't wash it off now, if made an error - but you need to plan fo that at the start anyway....The grounds also take oil, india ink, pencil and pastel underpaintings well. My main complaint - and this covers watercolor grounds as well, is that watercolor/dyes don't adhere well on top of dried ground. Very resistant and tough to get color depth desired.
