Premium Acrylic Soft-gloss
In some cases, we notice that the paint used on a wooden surface or walls wears out in quick time. This is a direct result of the lack of use of quality paint primer. A primer is an undercoat applied on a surface to prepare for painting. A surface painted without this undercoat either has poor paint adhesion or gets damaged easily.

Better Protection for Surface

The use of primers provides an added protection to the surface before painting. Hence, the durability is improved. A paint store in Vancouver has a wide choice in paint primers, various undercoats along with finishes and deckotes.

Form a binding layer

Priming helps in forming a binding layer on the surface. If one has to paint a porous surface, then priming it is all the more important. Primers generally have high resin content in contrast to paints that have high pigment content. Primers differ in terms of viscosity and porosity as they need to offer a binding and foundation layer for the paint. Therefore, paint supplier ensures that there is availability of quality paint primers for different paints.

Provides Better Paint Adhesion

Primers provide a firm surface for better paint adhesion. The use of primer is required to ensure that paint is easily applied on to the surface and hence, increases its durability.
