Primers are used to prepare surfaces for paints.
Good primers seal surfaces and provides the paint with a better bonding surface.
Paints provide surfaces with a final, smooth layer of protection and colour. Large surfaces such as walls and ceilings should be painted with water-based paints. Wood surfaces like doors, window frames, skirting and fences, as well as metal surfaces like iron doors and railings should be best painted with solvent-based paints. Paints can be described by the shine they produce when dry. Brushes are made with both Natural bristles and Synthetic bristles.
