Then I heard that Grafix frisket would work on Canson, and so I bought this to try it. Worked like a dream. It's less than ideal if you use a heat tool over it (it can "cook into" the paper and rip it, or sometimes it just discolors the paper), but as long as you're willing to wait for things to dry fully, it's a dream come true for working on student paper.
Even though nowadays I work as a professional illustrator and often use Arches, I still love my Canson XL - so I keep on buying this fluid. Oh, and one 2oz bottle lasted me a year, so don't worry about running out.
A few tips for those not used to using it:
- LET THE STUFF DRY THOROUGHLY. Painting over not-fully-dry masking fluid is a great way to ruin a nice brush. Let it dry for 15+ minutes and/or until it is sort of "sticky but dry" to the touch.
- That said, don't leave it on for more than a couple days at the very most - about 6 hours is the ideal limit. Beyond that, it can have complications.
- Don't use a heat tool over it, it can cook into the paper and rip it, or discolor the paper (it turns sort of parchment yellow)
- Use a silicone nib applicator (Meeden here on Amazon have some cheap ones) instead of a paintbrush, this stuff WILL wreck a paintbrush almost instantly
- Don't cover huge areas - just edges. I tend to limit myself to 2cm wide; if I have to do anything more than that, it can rip.
- If you use this over some inks, the ink can smear into the fluid. DON'T WORRY, 90% of the time it doesn't show in the end - it's not smearing it onto/into the paper, it's smearing in the fluid. Just breathe, let it dry, and peel it off, and it'll probably not show up in the end. (If you can, test this on scrap paper before actually using the combination on your painting.)
- Use a plastic eraser or rubber-cement piece to remove the fluid, NOT your finger or thumb. I have gotten blisters on my thumb from the friction of removing large amounts of masking fluid. No allergy or skin irritation, just honestly the friction can hurt your skin. Be kind to your hands, use a tool of some sort.
Finally a warning: This stuff smells like gas - and I don't mean car fuel. It's kinda gross. But I consider it worth it for the benefits of being able to use this in my painting. Just be warned.
Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2019
Practice with it first on an inconsequential piece of art so you can get a feel of how it works and how much to apply. My first try I applied a little too much in some spots and it ended up ripping off the top layer of paper underneath. You only need a thin layer because once it rubberizes it has made a good seal and you’re good to go. Taking it off is a lot easier than I expected; I used a dust rag and it peels off easy-peasy.
Since this is my first time using liquid mask I can’t really compare it to any other brands, but it does exactly what it says it will for $10 whereas other brands are more expensive, so I am not sure what more I could ask for!
Very happy with it, definitely recommend!
