Answer This Question

A:  Hi Andrew, thanks for your question. As it turns out, we don't recommend using a conventional air sprayer to apply our Marquee Exterior paint. Instead, you can use an airless sprayer, 3/8in nap roller, or nylon/polyester brush. Also, please keep in mind that we don't recommend adding more than 8oz of water per gallon to thin out this paint. Have a great day! -Christina

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi Andre, thanks for your question. A separate primer is not required before applying this paint; our Marquee Exterior paint is self-priming, and the first coat of paint will act as a primer, while additional coats will provide full coverage. Good luck with your project! -Christina

        A:  Hi MinnesotaPainter, thank you for your question. Our Marquee Exterior Paint is self-priming, and you do not have to reprime before recoating the surface. To prepare your surface, I recommend making sure that it's clean and dry and scuff sanding if glossy for the best adhesion. Have a great day! -Lina
