This Leyland Contract Primer Undercoat in Brilliant White (2.5L) is designed for professional decorators and DIYers tackling new work. Its key benefit is providing an excellent basecoat for bare timber, ensuring a smooth finish for subsequent topcoats. A potential caveat is its suitability primarily as a primer and undercoat, not a final decorative finish.

This primer is specifically designed for bare timber. While it may adhere to other surfaces, it's recommended to use a primer formulated for plaster for optimal results on walls.
The number of topcoats required depends on the colour and type of paint used. Generally, two topcoats are recommended for even coverage over a white primer.
This product is intended for interior use, particularly on new work and bare timber. For exterior applications, a primer specifically designed for outdoor conditions should be used.
The 2.5L can weighs approximately 6.61 pounds (3 kg).
Yes, this primer is suitable for overcoating with most types of decorative topcoats, including oil-based paints, once fully dry.
Store the primer in its original, tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place, away from frost and direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is securely fastened to prevent drying out.
Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and prepared before application. Sanding bare timber before priming can improve adhesion.
Apply a second coat of primer. If significant imperfections remain, consider using a filler or sanding the surface smooth before re-priming.
Ensure the primer was stirred thoroughly and applied evenly with a brush or roller. Avoid overworking the paint.
Check if the product has been stored correctly. If excessively thick, it may need thinning slightly with water, but consult the product's technical data sheet for specific thinning recommendations, if any.
Preparation: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and any loose or flaking material. Lightly sand bare timber surfaces before application for optimal adhesion.
Application: Stir the primer thoroughly before use. Apply evenly using a brush or roller. For best results, apply in a well-ventilated area.
Compatibility: This primer is suitable for use on bare timber. It is designed to be overcoated with most types of decorative topcoats, including emulsion and solvent-based paints. Always test compatibility on a small, inconspicuous area if unsure.
Drying Time: Typically touch dry in 1-2 hours and recoatable in 2-4 hours, depending on temperature and humidity.
Care: Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use with water. Store any unused primer in its original, tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and frost.
