Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need primer?

Primer is useful on fresh plaster, patched walls, or porous surfaces.

How does coverage affect litres?

Lower coverage means the wall absorbs more paint, so you need more litres per coat.

Can I enter a container price?

Yes. You can plan cost by litre or by container size depending on the supplier quote.

Is this for exterior paint too?

Yes, but exterior coatings may have different coverage and primer requirements.
