Micheal said ONLY to use rabbit-skin glue, there was no need to use gesso on the MDF board.

Did the board crack using just the rabbit-skin glue on the MDF alone?

Also, I do not know what you mean by STRONG rabbit-skin glue as opposed to regular rabbit-skin-glue. He said to use two coats and did not mention anything about STRONG rabbit-skin glue.

Thanks for the tip on the quality MDF board.

I have used it with Acrylic Gesso for Pastel, a Golden product and the MDF has performed just fine, no cracking etc..
