I am painting on foam board for a vacation Bible school project. Will this gesso work on foamboard and with acrylic paint?

I would say so. I used it on artist paper and even coloring books. It gives you a nice rough surface to paint/color on. Colors are much more vivid, also.

i just tried on 3 kinds of wood board which are used for furniture, i think it works great. also i think this can pretty much work on any hard surface even glass.

Yes as long as the paint is dry. It may need to have a clear wax first. The darker wax sometimes will soak in if the surface is porous.

Foam pads won't scratch the paint. Microfiber will work well too. Cotton can be too aggressive and scratch the finish

I wouldn't think so. After drying you can peel mistakes off glass. I don't know about painting on clear acrylic.

While I have not used this glue for this particular application, here is my thought concerning gluing melamine to a chalkboard. The melamine is non porous therefore I am assuming that the two are glued together by surface tension. I would think this glue would work much the same way on any non porous material. That is as long as both materials can be brought tightly together and held for the appropriate amount of time for the glue to dry. The only way to know is to try a test piece. BTW, both surfaces need to be clean and free of any oils or wax. You also can find some information on Titebond's web site concerning the use of their products. Good luck.

Yes. All we did was give our finished cabinets a quick scuff with sandpaper and then used the GF java and finished with a wipe on poly. After a couple projects with GF java we learned foam brushes give much better coverage. Good luck on your project.

Personally I have never used watercolors on them - only acrylics - but I am pretty sure watercolors would work, especially if you put a nice gesso base coat on first or another color. Good luck!!

I don't really know - I think that I would do some online researching and/or ask a paint store. The board cream is essentially oil and beeswax. I would think that this would not harm the stained surface or remove the stain. Perhaps you can try it on the table underside. The Boos cream WILL darken the wood. It would be nice to learn what you discover/do.

I use these two products on a paint enameled dining room table. Also, I use on acrylic contemporary end tables - works beautifully. I would try it on your panels, it should work. The polish will protect from water as water will bead up. The product is marketed for boat polishing.

I think it will make the acrylic paint spread better. I used it on fabric chairs and the paint covered better and it is easily wiped/cleaned.

This should work with paint, but the paint needs to be diluted. I used my to paint wood panelled walls with white latex paint and it worked wonderfully. It takes a few tries to figure out the best dilution. I also found that I needed to keep qtips handy to clean the nozzle every once in a while.

Okay, I did a test on some foam board. It doesn't work very well at all, it still cuts, but starts the paper on fire and is real slow process..and will most likely deform your blade. With plain foam, it cuts just unbelievably well. So, in my opinion, not good on foam board. Use a sharp razor blade.

YES, but you will have to use quite abit......you see this is plastic & really did not work for me.....so I bought blackboard paint instead!

The gel sticks should work very well on canvas board. It is a creamy product (like lipstick). Don't forget that the sticks have a bit of "open" time (they take a bit of time to dry) so don't stack things on top of a recently completed art project. Have fun!

I have to say no. I painted a regular wall with chalk paint, let it cure for a few days and then used the SuperChalks to design a holiday theme. I just tried to wipe it off and I'm not having much luck. I might try the board cleaner or I just might have to repaint and use regular chalk. Love the Superchalks but perhaps the feedback is correct, don't use on porous surfaces.

I don't see why it couldn't be used on acrylic. It has a faux suede type backing. I have mine on a painted wood surface so I couldn't say for sure about the acrylic, but I think it would be fine. Sorry I can't be more definite
