Gamblin Ground and Gesso Blade 4"

Get the job done right in a fraction of the time with less mess and no waste.

If you prime canvases and panels with gesso or Oil Ground, you know how time-consuming it is to get a thin, even coat. You also know what a pain it is to clean brushes afterward. And how wasteful single-use paint rollers are.

With the Gamblin Ground and Gesso Blade, you get a perfect, even application from edge-to-edge in a fraction of the time, with less mess and no waste. Best of all, it is the first and only artist’s tool made from 100% recycled material. Wipe clean after use and reuse your Ground and Gesso Blade over and over.

100% recycled material

Un-dyed re-grind is melted and re-molded instead of wasted.
