Preparation

Prepare the surface by ensuring that it is clean, dry and free from dirt, grease or any other contaminants. Be sure to remove any defective coatings before you start.

  • Previously painted surfaces should be thoroughly rubbed down
  • Cracks or holes should be filled prior to applying the primer

  • Do not use in temperatures below 5°C. Stir thoroughly before use and apply with a brush only.
  • Please note that spray application is not recommended for health and safety reasons associated with this solvent based product.

  • For best results, use a good quality synthetic brush. Apply one or two coats of Dulux Trade Aluminium Wood Primer. Apply two coats over highly resinous wood, or surfaces that are coated in bitumen or creosote.
  • Go with the grain and use the least amount of brushstrokes as possible
  • Allow up to 24 hours between coats. For aged creosote or bitumen surfaces, allow 48 hours.

Aftercare & Storage
Do not store in extremes of temperature and keep the tin free from frost. Store and transport with a tightly sealed lid and keep it upright.
FAQ's

Q. Will Dulux Trade Aluminium Wood Primer offer protection?

A. The primer provides a protective barrier between the wood and the paint. It helps to seal the wood and prevent any moisture penetration, which could lead to issues like rotting, warping, or swelling of the wood over time.
