Find the Right Primer for Every Job
Primer paint is always a good idea when starting a painting project. If you want to ensure the best adhesion for paint and hide any imperfections on your walls, start with primer. There are several types of primer to choose from: oil-based primers, water-based primers, and paint and primer in one. If you’re painting surfaces prone to be touched, like doors, windows and cabinets, opt for oil-based. Water-based options, also known as latex primers, are suggested for use on new drywall and wood. They’re great stain-blocking primers. Working specifically with drywall? PVA primer seals the surface of drywall and provides a good base for paint. At Lowe’s, we have a variety of primer brands to choose from including Zinsser primer, Rust-Oleum primer and more. No matter the surface you’re working on — whether brick, drywall, plaster or something else — Lowe’s has a solution for you.
