Applying a base coat (also known as primer) to a wall involves preparing the surface and applying the coat evenly for optimal adhesion and a smooth finish. Here's how:
- Preparation: Ensure the wall is clean, dry, and free from any loose paint, dust, or grease.
- Application: Apply the base coat evenly using a brush, roller, or sprayer.
- Drying: Allow the base coat to dry completely, usually around 4 hours.
- Touch-up (if needed): If any areas need touching up, wait until the base coat is fully dry, then reapply the base coat to those areas.
