Product Information

Full details

The Mylands Primer & Undercoat in Turquoise is a high-performance, water-thinned base coat designed for professional decorators and DIY enthusiasts looking for a reliable surface foundation. This product excels at providing high opacity and excellent adhesion to a variety of internal surfaces, including new plaster and patch-repaired areas. While it offers a low-odor and micro-porous finish, users should note that it is specifically optimized for use under Mylands water-based topcoats rather than as a standalone finish.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this primer on exterior walls?

No, this product is specifically formulated for internal applications only.

Does this primer cover dark colors effectively?

Yes, its high opacity is specifically designed to provide a neutral, uniform base over existing colors.

How long should I wait before applying the topcoat?

While drying times can vary based on humidity, it is recommended to wait until the surface is completely touch-dry, usually within a few hours.

Is this primer suitable for fresh plaster?

Yes, it is highly recommended for use on new plaster to seal the surface and provide a base for painting.

Do I need to thin this primer before use?

It is typically ready for use out of the can, but if you find it too thick for your specific application method, consult the technical datasheet for approved dilution ratios.

What is the best way to clean my brushes?

Since this is a water-based product, simply wash your brushes in warm water with a mild detergent immediately after use.

Troubleshooting

Primer feels chalky or dusty after drying

The surface was likely not cleaned of dust before application; lightly sand the area and apply a fresh, thin coat.

Primer is peeling in patches

Check the underlying substrate for loose debris or dampness; remove loose material and ensure the wall is completely dry before re-priming.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, stir the primer thoroughly before use. Apply using a high-quality roller or brush, ensuring even distribution across the wall surface.

Compatibility: This product is specifically formulated to be used as a base under Mylands water-based finishes. While it may work with other systems, compatibility should be tested on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, keeping the container tightly closed to prevent the product from drying out or skinning over. Protect from frost.
Cleanup: Because this is a water-thinned product, brushes and rollers can be cleaned with warm, soapy water immediately after application.
