: is masonite really the best choice for panels??I prepare ubtempered masonite with taditional gesso after a light sanding. My problems are 1. sometime I get a small chip off the surface and 2. the corners are so easily damaged.am I doing it wrong or is that just the way it goes?thanks for reading.

Tempered is stronger. You should not get any chips with that. I use quarter inch tempered for all my paintings and it beats canvas every time.
