Plaster Primer

(330)

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.

I have just had a look at your website – STUNNING colours and love the ethos behind your company!  

Charlotte Lawson Johnston

When we moved into Hopetoun we were really keen to find colours that worked for our young family and the house. Your colours did this well and the paint was especially suitable as it is so breathable. The decorators loved the paint and said it was the best to apply they had used and no horrid paint smell was a real …

Amanda, I loved our ‘creative colour session’. I can not thank you enough for your positive and ‘on the mail’ input. Thank you for getting back to me so speedily. Let me tell you I have slept so much better since your visit. No more stress over the odd greys that were creeping into my plan. I …

Love this, so very charming, individual and cosy. The paint colour is perfect !

Acanthus Antiques

Each colour feels so carefully considered and they have a beautiful finish on the wall. We love to use colours that are less ’true’ as they work so well throughout the year, changing in tone with the seasons. It was this that drew us to Drab green.

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.
