VINCENT MONTEREY AP 12X12

Vincent Pro is America's top quality Professional 7/8" deep canvas, made by Masterpiece. Stretched using Monterey 3X Acrylic primed canvas, which is sized and double primed, yielding an archival, acid-free, and leach-free surface for oil or acrylic paints. The 100% cotton based canvas has a 7oz. raw weight, and 10.5oz finished weight.

Stretched using a unique MuseumWrap method that yields balanced canvas tension across the surface of up to 50% tighter than other methods. Expertly constructed, Vincent Pro provides superior frame support using a patent pending keyable cross brace technology for sizes 16x16 and up. A keyable brace is unprecedented for this size stretcher bar. The canvas stays tighter due to the drum-tight stretch, and because the cross braces prevent the stretcher bars from bowing inward and the canvas from slackening. To increase canvas tension, slightly expand the size of the frame by forcing the corner keys and brace keys further into the slot. This unique system makes it possible to tension the canvas in the middle of the frame, where the tension is needed the most.

The 7/8 deep Stretcher Bar is taller, stronger, and yields a full 5/16 relief to the canvas, thereby preventing those unsightly lines created when the canvas touches the Bar underneath. Folded Corners and extra canvas selvage leave the canvas uncut and intact and re-stretchable on the same size frame. The clean staple free edges are perfect for an elegant frameless display. The precision machined, solid-wood, finger-joint free, kiln-dried Bars are milled with lumber harvested from the sustainable forests of Oregon and California.
