Leyland Trade Acrylic Primer Undercoat - White

Leyland Trade's Acrylic Primer Undercoat is a general purpose water based primer undercoat, suitable for interior and exterior bare surfaces. As well as being easy to apply, it's low odour and quick drying, so you can apply two or three coats in one day.

• Suitable for plaster, bare timber, MDF, drywall and render
• Quick Drying
• Primer and Undercoat

Make sure that the surface is sound, clean, dry and free from grease.

• Use a fine waterproof abrasive paper to rub down any bare timber to remove any sharp edges or raised grains.
• Apply Knotting Solution to knots and resinous surfaces.
• Use a fine waterproof abrasive paper to provide a key if you're painting previously painted surfaces. Wear a suitable face mask if dry sanding. Pre-1960s paint removal over wood and metal need special precautions as they may contain harmful lead.

Always perform a test on a small inconspicuous area to ensure compatibility, and we recommend following the manufacturer's instructions found on the tin.

• Stir well before use. Apply generously by brush or roller, firmly into the surface.
• Be sure to treat the end grain as wel as the main surface of any timber.
• If you are applying a gloss finish, add a second coat of the Leyland Acrylic Primer Undercoat, which makes a great undercoat for the gloss paint.
• Apply in temperatures of 10 degrees celsius or above and avoid applying when it's likely to rain.

Q. Why Use a Primer Undercoat?

A. It helps to create a smooth and even surface by filling in minor cracks, holes, and imperfections. This results in a professional-looking finish and helps to hide any underlying flaws. The primer undercoat also helps improve adhesion of the paint to the surface. It creates a strong bond between the substrate and the topcoat, ensuring better paint coverage and durability. The primer undercoat seals the surface, preventing the topcoat from being absorbed into porous surfaces. This helps in achieving a uniform finish and prevents excessive absorption of the topcoat, saving paint and reducing the number of coats needed.

Q. What can I apply Leyland Trade Acrylic Primer Undercoat Paint to?

A. Leyland Trade Acrylic Primer Undercoat Paint is suitable for a variety of surfaces, including wood, plaster, concrete, cement rendering, brickwork, blockwork and previously painted surfaces. It can be used as a base for both interior and exterior painting projects.
