## Overview

Ampersand Art Supply's Museum Series Claybord is a premium 9" x 12" 1/8" flat profile painting panel featuring an ultra-smooth, acid-free kaolin clay surface on a warp-resistant, FSC-certified Hardbord core. Designed for mixed media artists, it supports a wide range of techniques including etching and reworking, while being eco-friendly and handcrafted in the USA for over 25 years of trusted quality.

## Description

Ampersand Art Supply's Museum Series Claybord is made from our premium warp-resistant 1/8" profile FSC-Certified Hardbord that is sealed and protected with our proprietary Archiva-Seal and coated with an ultra-smooth, highly absorbent acid-free kaolin clay ground that is perfect for mixed media. The surface is sanded to an ULTRA-smooth, highly absorbent finish so your paint colors remain true and brilliant. The unique clay surface allows for unlimited techniques – etching, erasing, reworking, adding color and scratching it away to add contrast, texture, and fine details. Claybord is perfect for many fine art uses including pigmented and alcohol inks, gouache, egg tempera, acrylic, airbrush, graphite, pencil, pen, watercolor, casein, collage, scratch board and mixed media. Your final artwork on Claybord can even be sealed and displayed without glass. Only Ampersand builds cradles by hand with premium-grade, 13-ply birch plywood for maximum stability and a clean, finished look from edge to edge. Choose from 3/4", 1 1/2" and 2" deep cradles, offering support and presentation all-in-one. All Ampersand Museum Series panels are eco-friendly, formaldehyde-free, and proudly handcrafted in the USA.

Review: Absolutely Nice and Different - The ultra-smooth surface produces some interesting results. I've tried oil pastels, watercolor, acrylic and water-based paint on them. Pastels and water-based seem to work the best for me. Unlike, say a glazed tile (also smooth), this board is extra-absorbent so the media immediately finds purchase and won't run (as in a glazed tile). Also, unlike canvas the surface will not deteriorate with steel wool, painting knife and the like. Only the paint is affected. Water-based can be manipulated after-the-fact by applying water. Kinda like oils that remain unset for a while. However, oil will dry much sooner on this board than in canvas. It is very similar to Formica (I haven't tried in Formica yet). However, due to its reasonable price and the frame's fit and finish this is worth it, in my opinion. Finally, the variety of sizes and widths makes it easier for the artist.
Review: Ambersand panels for painting - Nice quality. Have bought several of these in different sizes. Used them for egg tempera painting. Would buy again

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ambersand panels for painting
*by J***E on August 17, 2025*

Nice quality. Have bought several of these in different sizes. Used them for egg tempera painting. Would buy again

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great texture, but they stain so don’t believe you can wash/reuse them
*by B***A on September 17, 2025*

These are lovely to paint on. I use watercolors, and I love the smooth texture (makes smooth colors, too). They’re a good thickness for the size, but I did receive mine with a couple slightly dented corners. That wasn’t a big deal for me as I’m just experimenting. I will order them again, probably in a bigger pack which will be cheaper and (hopefully) less likely to arrive without damage. I appreciate the price point, too. —One note, I’ve heard in a few places that you can wash these off and paint on them more than once. This is definitely not true of watercolor paints. The clay is porous and will stain.
