Question 1

What type of primer should I use for my wood furniture?

Accepted Answer

When working with wood furniture, you'll want to choose a primer designed specifically for wood. These primers are often oil-based and provide excellent adhesion to the wood grain, preventing the paint from peeling or flaking over time. Additionally, look for a primer to block tannins and knots in the wood, as these can bleed through the paint and cause discoloration.

Question 2

What is the difference between a flat and a semi-gloss primer?

Accepted Answer

The sheen of a primer refers to its level of reflectivity. A flat primer has a matte finish, offering a subtle, non-reflective look. This is a good choice for walls and ceilings, as it can help to hide minor imperfections. On the other hand, a semi-gloss primer has a more reflective finish, which can help highlight the surface and make it more durable. This is a good choice for areas with high traffic or needing easy cleaning, like trim or doors.

Question 3

Why should I use a primer if I'm painting over existing paint?

Accepted Answer

Using primer over old paint might seem like extra work, but it can actually make painting easier and look better in the end. Primer helps seal the previous paint, preventing the new paint from bleeding through and creating an uneven finish. It also provides a consistent surface for the new paint to adhere to, ensuring smooth coverage and preventing uneven color patches.

Question 4

Should I use a brush or a sprayer to apply primer?

Accepted Answer

While rollers are great for larger areas, brushes are best for tackling smaller areas and corners and achieving a more precise application. Sprayers are also an option, especially for large projects, requiring careful handling and proper ventilation.
