Each sheet is adhered to a 3mm (1\/8\") MDF backing to keep edges flat during storage, travel, and display. Designed for oil and alkyd painting, the panels offer a finer tooth than typical cotton canvases and are sized for professional work, studies, and plein air pieces that require archival longevity without bulk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes Centurion’s linen panels different from standard canvases?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCenturion uses an enhanced oil priming process on medium-weight linen to improve pigment adhesion and colour retention.
