Question Hello. I've been asked to organize a kids group painting a mural on a plywood and rough beam surface. Could you give me any pointers on how to prepare the surface, and what sort of primer to use for acrylic paints? I'd appreciate any help!
Answer Hi Bryn,
Thank you for you question, all you need to do is make sure the surface is cleaned, so that no dust or oily substance is on the wood you may want to sand it if it is not smooth, then go buy some acrylic Gesso Primer in any art supply warehouse. Then just roll or brush the primer on, let it dry and put on another coat.
