Why Use Acroprime Primers
- Achieve a smooth, professional finish
- Primer improves the final appearance. The sealing properties of primer assures a uniform finish.
- Additionally, a uniform finish is needed to achieve professional results.
- Block stains, marks and odors
- Primer has many advantages including blocking stains, marks and odors. This will also help coverage when applying your finish coat.
- For example, if you don’t prime over existing stains, they may still bleed through after multiple finish coats. Therefore, priming can save you a lot of labor!
- Assure adhesion
- The bonding properties of primer are important. Especially, when repainting a higher sheen finish.
- Additionally, priming assures adhesion and prevents premature paint failures.
- Speed topcoating
- Priming also improves the speed at which the topcoat is applied.
- The reason is simple. Primer creates an ideal surface for the topcoat; clean, dry, and dull.
- Prevent peeling
- As mentioned above, priming helps prevent premature paint failures. Especially, peeling paint.
- Primer adheres to the existing surface and secures a bond between the topcoat and substrate.
- Attain the trust paint colour in the fewest coats
- When tinted correctly, priming can reduce the amounts of coats needed.
- For example, using a grey shade primer may reduce the amount of coats needed to achieve deep tone colour.
- Fills micro cracks and prevents them from coming to surface
