Frequently Asked Questions

Visit our FAQ page for more information.

  • Is paint primer necessary for Pure & Original paints?

    Paint primers are necessary, irrelevant of the paint brand, if you want to ensure adhesion, durability, color depth, and longevity of your painted surface.

    Primers help paint adhere better to the surface and reduce the likelihood of peeling or flaking over time. They also seal porous surfaces, preventing the absorption of paint and resulting in a more even color and sheen. Additionally, primers can block stains and odors, especially on surfaces prone to discoloration or contamination.

  • What paint primer should be used?

    When selecting a paint primer, it is important to consider the compatibility of the primer with the specific surface type, like plaster or wood, the issues of that surface, like stains or uneven texture, and the desired paint finish.

    Our WallPrim primer helps with proper adhesion of our mineral lime paints, notably Fresco and Marrakech Walls. This primer is ideal for wood, plaster and drywall, vinyl, lime plaster, cement plaster, absorbent natural stone, clean brickwork, aerated concrete, drywall, plaster blocks, and other mineral surfaces.

    Our OmniPrim is a high-quality universal primer for interior and exterior paints, notably our lacquer paints. This primer is truly universal and good for drywall, old layers of paint, varnish and wallpaper, wood, masonry, stone, plaster, synthetics like hard PVC, metals like aluminum and zinc, and other mineral surfaces.

  • How to apply paint primer to walls?

    To apply paint primer to walls effectively, ensure the surface is clean and repaired, then choose a primer suitable for both the surface material and paint type. Stir the primer well and use brushes or rollers for application, working in manageable sections to maintain even coverage. Allow each coat to dry before applying additional coats if necessary. We strongly recommend priming repair spots before applying the entire coat.

  • Are paint primers eco-friendly?

    Pure & Original paint primers meet the highest environmental standards. Our primers are water-based formulas, low VOC, tinted with natural organic pigments, and graded A+ for indoor air emissions. Wallprim has little to no odor.

  • Do I need paint primer for white walls?

    Paint primer is necessary for white walls when the surface is not suitable for your desired paint type or color. If you are going for a drastic color change, you need a primer to avoid color discrepancy. Most surfaces, irrelevant of color, require some adhesive assistance to ensure the paint sticks and covers as expected and long-term.
