Question 1

Can I apply primer with a roller?

Accepted Answer

Rollers are an excellent option for applying primer, especially for large surfaces like walls and ceilings. Choose a roller with a nap appropriate for the surface you're working with, and remember to use a smooth and even rolling motion for optimal coverage.

Accepted Answer

We carry a wide range of top-rated primer brands, including Zinsser, KILZ, and Rust-Oleum Stops Rust.

Question 3

Which paint primer is most common?

Accepted Answer

The most common type of primer is a general-purpose latex primer. This water-based primer dries quickly, making it a good choice for most indoor projects.

Question 4

How do I choose the right sheen for my primer?

Accepted Answer

The sheen of your primer will depend on the final look you're aiming for and the surface you're working with. Flat or matte primers are generally best for walls and ceilings, while semi-gloss or gloss primers are better for trim, doors, and areas that need to be cleaned more frequently. Always check the product label for recommendations on the appropriate sheen for your specific project.

Choose the right color that is most compatible with your project. We offer white, clear, or gray primers.

Question 6

What kind of paint primer do I need for different projects?
