Oil Primed Linen Panel - 1/8" Hardboard

Trekell’s Oil Primed Linen – 1/8" Hardboard Panels pair the reliable durability of a hardboard panel with the soft luxury of Claessens Linen #13. That linen, portrait-grade and imported from Belgium, is glued to the panel with solvent-free Beva film and then primed for oil using one layer of zinc white bound with linseed oil. After it is dried and sanded, the panel is additionally coated with a layer based on titanium white. The 1/8”-thick hardboard panel, sealed with Golden’s GAC100, provides the sturdy skeleton. It’s some of that Trekell magic: two contrasting elements that form the perfect team.

The hardboard: sturdy, durable, reliable. When you need the least amount of flex from your surface, the hardboard is your best answer. However, while these boards are known for their firmness, each exuding a substantial stability, they never feel bulky. That’s a quality inherent in every dimension, be it the small yet resilient 4x6”, commanding 30x30”, or the four others falling in between. Whichever version, each hardboard’s front is sealed with Golden’s GAC100 before the finish is applied, giving you that professional edge. This particular hardboard is mounted with the classy and classic Claessens Linen #13 that has been primed for oil using one layer of zinc white bound with linseed oil. After it is dried and sanded, the panel is additionally coated with a layer based on titanium white. Portrait-grade and imported-from-Belgium, this linen has become renowned for its quality at a price point that won’t break the bank. Supple linen plus the dependability a hardboard: truly the best of both worlds.
