Always test a small area of the surface to be painted to ensure you are happy with the finished results

• Thin, if necessary, for brush application with White Spirit 1050, and for spray application with Spray thinner 1032.
• Apply 1 coat of Otex Primer by brush, roller or sprayer.
• Allow to dry.

• Top coat can be applied the following day.

Always follow manufacturer's instructions found on the tin

Unaffected by cold storage or transportation

After use firmly secure the lid.

If needed, at the earliest after approx. 1 month from painting: Clean the surface with a neutral (pH 6-8) dishwashing solution and a soft brush, sponge or cleaning cloth. Clean very dirty surfaces with a lightly alkaline (pH 8-10) dishwashing solution and with cleaning cloth or sponge. Rinse the surface carefully. The surfaces must be handled with care during few weeks after finishing as the paint will reach its final hardness in normal circumstances after one month. If the surfaces need to be cleansed soon after finishing they must be cleansed lightly with a soft brush or a damp cleaning cloth.

Q.How many coats of primer are recommended when using Tikkurila?

Ans.The number of coats of primer needed depends on the surface and the desired transformation. For slight color changes, one coat of primer may be sufficient. For more significant color changes or challenging surfaces, two coats may be required. Surfaces like bare wood or new plaster will need 2 coats of primer. Tinted primers can help reduce the number of coats. At the same time, please refer to the individual product description for further information.

Q.Can I use Tikkurila Otex Primer as a standalone finish, or do they require a topcoat?

Ans.Tikkurila Otex Primer is typically used as a preparatory layer to create a suitable surface for topcoats. While it may provide a finish in some cases, it's recommended to apply a topcoat for enhanced durability and aesthetic appeal.

Q.Is Otex Adhesion Primer, being a solvent-based primer, compatible with other water-based topcoats?

Ans.Otex Adhesion Primer being a solvent based primer does work with water based top coats
