Thanks to everyone for the feedback. One of the problems may be that I don't stretch my own canvas, nor do I add extra gesso before I begin to paint. I would probably be more likely to take that kind of care were my prices higher but it's not cost effective to spend so much time on preparation at my price level. However, if I'm not willing to take those extra steps I shouldn't be complaining about the surfaces I use, doubtless. I was just hoping to find some handy tips!
