Our Water-Based Wood Primer is designed to prepare new and bare timber and MDF, creating a stable, even base before applying our Water-Based Eggshell or Gloss paints.
Suitable for all bare timber and MDF, it is particularly important on woods rich in active substances that can cause staining or tannin bleed. Knots should be spot-primed first, followed by two full coats of primer to help prevent discolouration from showing through the finished paint.
Low odour and ready to use, the primer can be diluted with up to 5% clean water if required.
Please note: For fresh plaster, lime plaster, lining paper or extensively filled surfaces, please use our Ultimate 2-in-1 Primer or our Plaster Primer.

I went for Red Orchre 5 Litres and hoped that it won’t look too dark and sits well with my existing furniture, it turned out the best decision I made this year for the house, the colour it beautiful and the quality is second to none.
“Make sure they’re eye level. And also don’t be afraid about it! You don’t want your pictures sitting on your floor for ages never hanging them. It’s much better that they’re up, even if they’re not up in completely the right way.”
Vert de Mer, if we were really pushed for an answer would be our favourite and is the one which has stopped people in their tracks – we have had so many customers come up and ask us where the paint is from.
A belated thank you for assisting me in choosing a colour for my drawing room. I am delighted with the colour (Jonquil 60%) and of course the paint itself which is so workable and a pleasure to use. The depth of the colour is glorious and my room comes across as so restful. What paint …
When I arrived on site for the first time the whole room had already been painted in Sea Green and the atmosphere in there was quite something. The colour was so soft and gentle yet because it’s a mid-green it was also quite dominant.

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!
