FAQs

How long does it take for Bostik Plasterer's Grit to dry?

Drying times vary depending on environmental conditions (temperature, humidity), but typically the primer dries within 2-4 hours. Always ensure the primer is fully dry before applying plaster.

Can I use Bostik Plasterer's Grit on exterior walls?

This product is primarily intended for interior use. For exterior applications, consider a primer specifically designed for outdoor conditions.

How much area does a single container cover?

Coverage depends on the porosity of the surface. Always check the container for specific coverage details.

What tools are recommended for application?

A brush or roller is recommended. Make sure to use clean tools for even application.

Do I need to mix the product before use?

No mixing is required. Bostik Plasterer's Grit is ready to use straight from the bucket.

What is the shelf life of this primer?

The shelf life is typically 12 months when stored properly in its original, unopened container.

Can I apply multiple coats of the primer?

One coat is usually sufficient. However, on highly porous surfaces, a second coat might be beneficial. Allow the first coat to dry completely before applying a second coat.

Troubleshooting

Primer not adhering to the surface.

Ensure the surface is clean and free of loose materials. In some cases, light sanding might improve adhesion.

Uneven coverage or color variations.

Ensure the primer is stirred well before use. Apply an even coat, overlapping slightly to maintain consistent coverage.

Plaster cracking after application.

Make sure that the primer has dried completely before applying plaster. Check the plaster manufacturer's instructions for drying times.
