I think the thread is veering off course a bit now, which I'm responsible for, so I'll be brief:

Richard, I use flake white almost exclusively now, occasionally titanium but usually on it's own when I want a bright opaque white. For shadows, I currently try to keep anything remotely opaque out of them as much as I can, including cadmiums.

Yes, acrylic gesso isn't really gesso, but nonetheless that's what Robersons call it. To be fair to them, they put the word "gesso" in quotation marks on the lable, I should have done the same. Interesting info there though, thanks.
