Benefits of Clear Primer Paint

Easy Application

Designed for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike, this primer ensures a smooth, flawless finish with minimal effort and expertise required.

Cost-Effective

By reducing paint absorption on porous surfaces, primer lowers the need for multiple topcoat layers, thus saving you money and reducing material wastage.

Time-Saving

The primer streamlines the overall application process, requiring fewer topcoats, which in turn reduces overall work time and makes coating efficient and quick.

Versatile Solution

Suitable for a wide range of surfaces, primer is an all-in-one solution. The transparent primer paint eliminates the need for purchasing multiple products.

Increased Efficiency

By sealing imperfections and reducing the need for additional layers, clear sealer primer accelerates the painting process, enhancing overall productivity.

How to Apply Transparent Primer Paint?

Prepare the surface effortlessly in simple steps

  1. Prepare the Surface - Ensure the surface is clean before applying Clear Sealer Paint. Sand the surface and remove any dust.
  2. Apply the First Coat - Evenly apply the clear primer and allow it to dry completely for 2 - 4 hours. Once dry, sand smooth for a refined finish.
  3. Build the Layers - Apply a second coat of clear sealer, sanding thoroughly after each layer. Once dry, apply the desired paint on the surface.

Note: For porous surfaces such as fresh wood or plaster, additional coats and sanding may be required to achieve a perfectly smooth finish.

FAQ's

Yes, clear primers exist. They're transparent base coats that seal surfaces without adding colour, allowing the natural material underneath to show without changing their appearance. They also provide protection and better paint adhesion.

Clear primer serves as a sealant for porous surfaces. It essentially helps improve the overall adhesion and performance of the topcoat while ensuring a smooth, even application, particularly for specialty coatings such as whiteboard paint. This is a non yellowing coating.

In most cases, two coats are sufficient. However, highly absorbent surfaces such as untreated wood or plaster may require additional coats to achieve the desired results.

It is recommended to allow the primer to dry for at least 2 to 4 hours before applying subsequent coats or the final paint.
Yes, sanding after each coat is advisable, as it helps create a smooth and even surface, thus ensuring better adhesion and an improved finish.
Clear Primer Paint is suitable for use on drywall, wood, plaster, wallpaper, and other dry, absorbent surfaces.
A high-quality foam or mohair roller is recommended for clear paint sealer for walls. However, if you are using a mohair roller, then kindly ensure that all loose fibres are removed before application to prevent an uneven finish.
Yes, Smarter Surfaces clear primers are specifically formulated to create a transparent, sealed base that preserves the natural appearance of the surface while preparing it for topcoat application.

FAQ's

First, prepare your surface. Make sure that your surface is clean, as smooth as possible and free from any dust, grease, or imperfections. Now, grab a high-quality foam or mohair roller for a seamless application (or use a sprayer if you prefer). Apply a thin, even coat of clear primer and let it dry completely. This usually takes around 2 to 4 hours, depending on conditions. Once dry, sand the surface until as smooth as possible. However, if your surface is extra absorbent or uneven, repeat the process with another coat. Remember to sand between each subsequent coat for achieving a flawless foundation before painting.
