Primer & Undercoat Paint
Primer vs Undercoat
Primer and undercoat do similar jobs, but they aren’t the same thing. Whereas a primer is used to prepare a wall the very first time it’s painted, an undercoat is applied to surfaces you want to repaint. Undercoat is described as a preparation product and is used to get a wall ready for a new coat of paint, often to prevent previous colours from bleeding through.
What Is Paint Primer?
Primer is a type of paint used to prepare a surface for its first coat of paint. This can include brickwork, plaster, wood, metal, MDF, and more. It primes the surface for painting and ultimately results in a superior finish. There are many different types of primer paint for both interior and exterior use, including quick dry, water-based and solvent-based, as well as spray-on acrylic primer.
Primer and undercoat products are essential for professional quality painting. At Toolstation, you’ll find trade quality primers and undercoats at friendly and affordable prices.
