Questions about the product Blank wooden Norman shield (131 cm) for painting

What material is the Norman shield blank made of and how is the surface prepared for decoration?

The shield is made of approximately 10 mm thick plywood. The surface is covered with linen or canvas, firmly glued to the wood, and primed white, so it can be used directly as a canvas for your own paintings. An armrest and leather carrying strap are also already attached.
What are the dimensions and weight of the Norman shield blank, and what additional elements are already mounted on the back?

The blank Norman shield is approximately 131 cm high, 56 cm wide, and weighs about 2.9 kg. Carrying straps, an arm mount, and leather arm padding are already attached to the back.
What specific paints or varnishes are recommended for painting the canvas-covered wooden sign to achieve optimal adhesion?

Acrylic paints or special textile paints are particularly suitable for painting a wooden sign covered with canvas, as these offer good adhesion to the fabric and dry flexibly. To further optimize durability and adhesion, the paints can be mixed with a textile medium, or the canvas can be pre-treated with a gesso primer. Finally, a clear varnish or fixative spray is recommended to protect the paintwork from abrasion and weathering.
What cleaning or care instructions should be followed for this wood-based sign blank to ensure the longevity of the material and the paintwork?

To ensure the longevity of the wooden sign blank and the paintwork, the wood should be stored in a dry place and protected from excessive moisture. After painting, sealing with a suitable clear varnish or wood oil is recommended to protect the colors from abrasion and environmental influences. A slightly damp, soft cloth is usually sufficient for cleaning; harsh cleaning agents should be avoided to prevent damage to the surface.
