Full details

The Mylands Primer & Undercoat in Green is designed for professional painters and DIY enthusiasts looking for a high-quality base layer for internal wall projects. It offers superior adhesion and high opacity, making it an ideal choice for preparing new plaster or patch-repaired areas before applying water-based finishes; however, users should note that it is strictly formulated for internal use and requires proper surface preparation to achieve the best results.
