Primer Paints

Wall primer is required before applying paint to any surface. Sealing porous areas & extending coverage will ensure a longer lasting coat. Available in different variants such as MDF paint, wood primer and metal primer, it is important that you choose the right one for the job. Oil based primers create barriers to stop wood from bleeding through, typically used on weathered wood such as windows and doors. Water based primers are flexible, fast drying and easy to clean. Used on soft wood, brick, concrete and some metals, they come in low or no VOC formulas. Shellac based primers are best used on interior surfaces to seal odours and provide stain blocking, but give off more fumes and will require thinning. Top brands are available in various colours and finishes to suit your needs. Suitable for interior or exterior use.
