Canvas on Masonite - Success!

[Joan Breckwoldt]

Thank you Wade for taking the time to post exactly how you mounted the canvas on the board. It's something I've been thinking about trying and now, with detailed instructions, just might give it a try.

I suppose this same technique would work with unprimed linen canvas? I would just have to prime and sand the canvas after the glue was dry? Or . . . would I have to apply a layer of 'canvas glue sizing' to protect the canvas from the oil primer? Couldn't I use the 'canvas glue sizing' to glue down the canvas? I did this yesterday and so far, it seems to be sticking.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help with this.
