Plaster Primer

(323)

Our Plaster Primer is a water-based, breathable primer made with natural ingredients and specially formulated to prepare fresh plaster, lime plaster, lining paper and areas with extensive filler before applying Edward Bulmer wall and ceiling paints.

Designed for absorbent surfaces, it helps create an even, consistent base for your chosen paint finish. Economical and easy to apply, the primer is diluted with water before use, making a little go a long way.

Please note: Not suitable for woodwork. For wooden surfaces, please use our Water-Based Wood Primer.

Application:
Dilute the Plaster Primer 1:1 with clean water and stir thoroughly. Apply 1–2 coats by brush or spray, depending on the absorbency of the surface.

Coverage:
Approximately 20m² per litre per coat after dilution, depending on the surface and application method.

It took me months to choose and I am happy I have chosen your paint. Even the professional painters who are mainly working on Heritage houses are impressed with the depth of the colour and ease of use.

Our decorator decided to use it just in case, so not sure if we really needed it or not. And after being worried he wasn’t keen on our non-Dulux choice, (he told me he has only used natural paint (Auro) four times in forty years) he said he thought it was great, went on well and lovely …

I highly recommend this paint, literally liquid gold! It’s been a privilege to use this natural paint; breathable, amazing coverage and environmentally friendly

Victor Flacon, VF Painters & Decorators

The ‘Brick’ is so correct and elegant with that art…per usual the clarity of your natural paints colours showcase both fine and decorative arts to advantage

There are three reasons I chose Edward Bulmer Natural Paint. First and foremost the fantastic range of colours, from the historically authentic to the more contemporary, meant that there was something fitting for every room in my cottage. Secondly, the paint’s true ‘green’ credentials were important and led onto the third benefit that painters like working with it. …

How much paint do I need?

We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.

Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.

If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!

What are you painting?

Estimated
Painted Wall/Ceiling Area

Our natural matt emulsion is perfect for interior walls and ceilings.

0 litres

0 m2

This estimate is based on two coats of paint and the dimensions of your room, minus the space taken by average doors and windows.

For this area, we suggest would be adequate.

Estimated
Woodwork Area

Our water based eggshell or gloss is ideal for woodwork or metalwork.

0 litres

0 m2

This estimate is based on two coats of paint and the skirting and the doors/windows you told us about. 1 litre should cover 2-3 doors or 20m of skirting.

For this area, we suggest would be adequate.
