Priming the Blue Mountains 
The Importance of Primers to Professional Painters in the Blue Mountains.
The Right Primer for Blue Mountains Homes
A beautiful, long-lasting paint finish begins with proper preparation, and selecting the right primer is an essential part of the process.
Blue Mountains homes can be exposed to changing temperatures, moisture, cold conditions and strong summer sunlight, all of which can place stress on exterior surfaces and paint coatings. The correct primer helps prepare, seal and stabilise a surface before the finishing coats are applied, creating a sound foundation for improved adhesion, coverage and durability.
Different surfaces require different types of primers.
Gyprock and plasterboard primers help seal porous new surfaces and create an even base for painting, while timber primers are designed to prepare and protect bare wood and weathered timber. Depending on the surface, professional preparation may also involve masonry sealers, adhesion primers or specialised metal primers.
Choosing the right product is not simply a matter of applying a standard undercoat—it requires an understanding of the surface, its condition and the environment it needs to withstand.
Stain-blocking primers are particularly valuable when dealing with water stains, smoke, tannins, nicotine or other marks that may bleed through a new paint finish.
At Paint or Paper, every surface is assessed individually so the most appropriate preparation method and primer can be selected before the finishing coats are applied. We believe the work beneath the paint is just as important as the final colour, helping to create a finish that not only looks beautiful but is prepared to perform in the demanding Blue Mountains climate.
