FAQs

Q. Can Polycell 3 in 1 Problem Wall Primer be sprayed?

A. No, This is formulated for roller application only.

Q. Will I require a separate stabilising solution with the Polycell Wall Primer?

A. Polycell has formulated this product to seal, stabilize and prepare flaky and absorbent surfaces. You will need to ensure that the area has a sound foundation and ensure the surface is well prepped. Mould will need to be treated, any holes filled, and any distemper paints must be fully removed before use.
