Application Guidelines

FAQs

1) Why do I need wood primer before painting?

Wood primer is essential for professional results. It seals porous wood, prevents tannin bleeding, improves enamel adhesion, reduces paint consumption, and provides moisture protection. Skipping primer leads to poor coverage, peeling, and shorter paint life.

2) What makes TruCare Wood Primer suitable for Bangalore's climate?

Engineered for humid conditions with superior moisture protection to prevent paint peeling during monsoon season. Bangalore's high humidity and seasonal rains require specialized primers that resist moisture penetration and wood rot—TruCare delivers this protection.

3) Does wood primer really prevent termite damage?

Primer provides termite protection as a preventive measure, not a complete termite treatment. It creates a protective barrier that deters termites. For severe termite infestations, use dedicated termite treatment before priming and painting.

4) Can I use wood primer on metal surfaces?

No, wood primer is formulated specifically for wood. For metal surfaces, use Asian Paints TruCare Yellow Metal Primer which provides rust protection and corrosion resistance. Using wrong primer type leads to poor adhesion and premature failure.

5) How long should I wait before painting after primer application?

Wait minimum 6-8 hours for complete drying. In humid conditions, allow 12-24 hours. Applying enamel on damp primer causes poor adhesion, bubbling, and uneven finish. Test dryness by touching inconspicuous area.

6) Can I apply primer on old painted wood?

Yes, if old paint is in good condition. Lightly sand old paint to create tooth for primer, clean thoroughly, then apply primer. For flaking or peeling old paint, remove completely, sand bare wood, then prime for best results.

7) Why is my wood bleeding through the primer?

Common with tannin-rich woods like teak or mahogany. Use stain-blocking primer or apply two coats of wood primer. For severe bleeding, use shellac-based sealer before oil-based primer. Proper sealing prevents discoloration of topcoat.
