Frisket Matt Low Tack Masking Film, White, 381 x 3.66 mm

It is no longer sold in Japan, so I was glad to be able to purchase it here.

Having ordered this, I then looked at the reviews and was somewhat alarmed at several purchasers who suggested that was not a genuine product. However, when it arrived I hastily opened it and all is well. I have been air brush painting since Noah was a lad and this seems like perfectly genuine Frisket to me.

Item as described. Arrived on time even earlier

I use this for masking areas on acrylic paintings. Gives reliable results.

This product is good but it can be quite difficult to use - you have to lay on the painting surface without any creases and get it perfect 1st time- otherwise the paint will bleed through. Also you can't use it in hot weather as it leaves a sticky residual on the surface.

I have only used this film once, so far, however it was on a textured watercolour paper and the paint bled underneath it at the edges. I have consulted a regular professional artist about this who says I should have pressed it down firmer and even though the paint bled this can be taken out with a firm brush. If it were used with pastels it would not be a problem. I will try again!
