Well, hey . . .
nothing's "perfect", please excuse my over-enthusing. Bets are off with all materials when mis-application or operator error enters the equation.
I should have elaborated on that statement. By "raw", I mean clean, new canvas off the bolt, devoid of all sizes or preparations. Canvas pinned to the edges of a wooden panel, then saturated with a suitable strength of RSG, sticks like a limpet, reliably, and it's a simple procedure that's pretty hard to screw up.
I'd never recommend RSG for attaching a primed and painted canvas to a panel; mounting a "loose" painting is a different problem.
