Do you want to paint your plaster or gyproc? Then you obviously need to apply a primer first. For if you are looking for a budget-friendly solution, you can go in with this Trimetal Primer that covers well.
This primer for interior walls will ensure that the absorption rate is evened out on the entire surface. This has the advantage that you will not have any dull spots in the finish.
In addition, this primer will not give you a nuisance odour as the paint is water-based.

How do you use Trimetal Magnaprim Fix?
Preparation: Clean the wall and make sure it is dust-free. If you have cracks or fissures, first work them away with a suitable Pollyfilla product. Then you can lightly sand and dust the surface if necessary. Of course, the last step in your preparation is to cover anything you don't want to paint, such as a radiator with cover foil and a window or door with masking tape.
Application: Applying the primer is easy with an antispatter paint roller and in the corners with a paint brush. The fixing primer covers in one layer and increases the adhesion of your finishing coat.
Finishing: Overcoat your primer with a wall and ceiling paint , such as Trimetal Magnacryl. You can do this after only 4h.
Good luck! 😉

How do you use Trimetal Primer?
Preparation: Cover everything you don't want paint to splash on. For example, you can put cover cardboard on the floor, apply cover film over cabinets and use masking tape for the edges of your walls. Personally, we think purple masking tape is the best for unpainted wall surfaces.
In addition, you also prepare the wall surface to be painted. For dirty walls, be sure to degrease, sand and dust the surface.
Application: The primer is ready for use immediately after stirring. Apply 1 coat of Trimetal primer with a roller. For the edges, you can of course use a brush.
However, are you dealing with a highly absorbent substrate? Then we recommend diluting the paint up to 10% so that it penetrates even deeper into your substrate. How exactly you can tell if you are dealing with a highly absorbent substrate is actually quite simple using some water in a plant sprayer. You mist the wall with some water; if the water soaks into the wall almost immediately, your wall is highly absorbent.
Finish: This primer belongs to Trimetal's basic range, which is interesting if you are looking for a budget-friendly paint. To stay in the same basic range of Trimetal paints, you can finish with 2 coats of Trimetal Mat, a matt wall paint or Trimetal Soft for a subtle sheen on your walls.

How much Trimetal Primer do I need?
On average, you will paint around 10m² with 1 litre Trimetal Primer. So with a 10l pot of Trimetal Primer, you can cover about 100m².
Size | Surface in 1 layer |
---|---|
2,5 litres, white or mix colour | ± 25 m² |
10 litres, white colour or mix colour | ± 100 m² |
Note: your exact consumption depends on your painting style and the absorbency of your substrate. So bear in mind that it may vary slightly from the average yield.
