Dulux Difficult Surfaces Primer in White, 750ml, is a water-based primer for the surfaces ordinary paint struggles to grip: MDF, melamine, tiles and uPVC. It works inside and out, giving you a consistent base before you paint.
It offers good adhesion and good opacity, and goes on in one coat with a brush or short pile roller. It is touch dry in 1 to 2 hours. Leave it 4 to 6 hours to dry fully, and at least 4 hours before applying your Dulux top coat. Expect around 10 m² per litre, so roughly 7.5 m² from this tin. Make sure the surface is clean and dry first. It is great value for a big-brand primer.
