How to Use Super Grip Primer Over Gloss

Published in Paint Primer Application 2 mins read

To use Dulux Trade Super Grip Primer over a gloss surface, you must first ensure the surface undergoes suitable preparation. Following this crucial first step, you can then proceed with the primer application methods detailed in the product information.

Essential Preparation Before Application

The reference states that application should occur "After suitable preparation". For gloss surfaces, this typically involves degreasing, cleaning, and often a light abrasion (sanding) to create a key for the primer to adhere to. However, the exact nature of "suitable preparation" should always align with specific product datasheets for the particular gloss surface and primer combination.

Applying Dulux Trade Super Grip Primer

Once the gloss surface is suitably prepared, follow these steps based on the provided information:

  1. STIR THOROUGHLY BEFORE USE. Ensure the primer is well mixed to guarantee consistent performance.
  2. Apply one coat of Dulux Trade Super Grip Primer.
  3. Choose your preferred application method:
    • Brush
    • Short pile roller
    • Spray
  4. Allow the primer to dry according to the product's instructions.
  5. Followed by the appropriate Dulux Trade paint system. After the primer has cured, apply the recommended topcoats for your project.

By ensuring the gloss surface is properly prepared and following the specific application guidelines – including thorough stirring and using the recommended application methods – you can effectively use Super Grip Primer as a base for your subsequent paint layers.
