The ultimate mixed media panel! 
  Archival and  acid-free , Claybord is created by applying Ampersand's patented, archival kaolin clay ground to a True Artist Hardbord substrate, then sanding it to a  velvet-smooth , absorbent finish. 
  Claybord is ideal for ink, watercolor, gouache, acrylic, casein, egg tempera, airbrush color, collage,  photo-transfer , pencil, and pen. The highly responsive surface is perfect for thinly applying and removing colors. You can even scratch through it to add contrast, texture, and fine details. Paint colors remain true and brilliant. 
  Made from sustainable forest products that ensure the protection of wildlife, plants, soil, and water, Claybord is  formaldehyde-free  and contains no harmful volatile organic compounds. 
  Choose flat panels or cradled panels in a variety of sizes and profiles. Cradled panels allow you to hang your work with no additional framing. The edges are smoothly sanded and ready to be finished if desired.

http://www.dickblick.com/brands/ampersand/.  Ampersand's original and most versatile panel, Claybord, has an ultra-smooth kaolin surface that accepts a wide variety of media. The absorbent surface allows for quick drying time of inks and paint. The real advantage of Claybord is how the surface can be manipulated; ink can be completely erased without affecting the integrity of the surface using Ampersand's oil-free steel wool. Sgraffito techniques can also be used on Claybord, something that cannot be achieved on paper. This and all other Ampersand products are available on the Ampersand page on the Blick Art Materials website http://www.dickblick.com/brands/ampersand/.
