Series 5450 Flat Gesso Brush Clearance Each frame includes mat boardStiff natural bristles push thick gesso into canvas weave without leaving brush marks that telegraph through subsequent paint layers. Princeton's 5450 series handles the aggressive application gesso demands, firm enough to work medium into texture, resilient enough to maintain shape through repeated loading and scrubbing. The flat profile covers broad areas efficiently while edges reach into corners and along stretcher bars where gesso tends to pool.
