Alkyds, Boards, mediums
Virgil,
Hello from the new boy on the site! I'm currently studying art, and have a couple of questions.
1) What do you think of alkyd mediums for oil painting? Some seem to think delamination is a problem.
2) My stand oil/damar mixture seems slower drying than expected- I'm experimenting after having used only alkyd mediums.
3) Is mdf board OK as a support? Masonite? Sealing with acrylic binder before priming? Any help appreciated!

You'll find many of the issues you raised discussed in lots of other threads. Just search the forum using keywords (like alkyd, damar, etc.) to find a wealth of information that should help answer your questions.

Actually, the ideal would be to send an email to Virgil giving him the url of this thread and ask if he would come and post an answer so all can have access to the knowledge.
