PPG - Mildew Resistant - Primers - The Home Depot

Question 1

What primer can I use on top of paint?

Accepted Answer

The right primer to use on top of paint depends on a few factors. Select a bonding primer for previously painted cabinets, trim, or furniture, and a latex or water-based primer on walls with flat or matte paint. For specialty projects, you can use an oil-based primer when switching from oil-based to latex paint, or a stain-blocking primer if the old paint has stains, smoke damage, or strong colors you need to cover.

Question 2

Why should I prime a wall before painting?

Accepted Answer

Priming your wall before painting offers many benefits, including better adhesion for a more uniform appearance, better sealing for a smooth and consistent topcoat on porous surfaces, improved color coverage with fewer coats, enhanced durability to resist cracking, peeling, and moisture damage, and a long-lasting finish.

Question 4

How many coats of primer should I put on before painting?

Accepted Answer

The right number of coats depends on the surface condition and color change. One coat is usually enough for most walls in good condition. However, consider an extra coat when covering a dark color with a light color (or vice versa), when covering a porous surface like new drywall or bare wood, and when sealing stains or repairs.
