Technical Details
Key Technical Data
Installation Guide
This odour-free primer can be applied with a brush or roller and then recoated with all Auro wall paint. One coat is generally sufficient. It can be thinned up to a maximum of 5% with water if desired and colour can be added by using up to 10% of the 330 Full Shade Tints. Any filling that needs to be done the Auro Wall Filler 329 can be used.
For priming a highly absorbent untreated plaster such as gypsum that is in good condition the Auro Plaster Primer 301 can be used but it wont give you a white base like the grip coat.
After priming leave it to dry for 4 – 6 hours before overcoating with any Auro Paint or Plaster as desired.
Tools can be cleaned using water, add some Auro Plant Soap 411 as desired.
Hints and Tips
Stir the paint well before and during application.
To make coverage easier if choosing a deep/dark follow up colour it can be a good idea to use some full shade tinting colour 330 up to a max of 10% to add some similar colour to the primer. This can make follow up treatments easier as the Gripcoat primer will have some colour.
