## Questions & Answers

**Q: matte finish?**
A: NO

**Q: No grit?**
A: No grit. Similar to mat medium, mod podge. Dries clear.

**Q: do you have to sand to get smooth**
A: No sanding. I have put this on several paint-by-numbers that are on canvas boards because I hated the gritty gesso. It seems to work great. I did put it on my 1st loose canvas & it was just slick, like painting on plastic/vinyl. the paint just slid around. I had to stop & put a coat of regular gesso on it.

**Q: can this product be used in an exterior application , it would be protected from most direct sun and moisture**
A: It has a flat finish, would not do well if moisture is present
