A very thick, matte, opaque preparation of marble dust and polymer emulsion is used to build heavy textures on rigid surfaces. This product handles like clay and dries to a very hard stone-like surface. When dry, it can be mixed with acrylic colour or over-painted. It makes an excellent substrate for acrylic paint, oil paint, oil pastels, oil bars, watercolours, graphite, or dry pastels. It is great for sculptural applications and may be sanded, carved, or drilled when dry for use on rigid supports.
