Absorbent panels can draw oil out of paint, leaving it dull and weakened. Sizing creates a barrier between the panel and the paint while also helping prevent staining compounds in hardboard from discoloring gesso and acrylic paint. From traditional Rabbit Skin Glue to modern acrylic sizing and PVA, artists have several options for sealing panels before painting.
