Preparation

Surface Condition: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and completely free from rust, grease, and any other contaminants.

Substrate Suitability: This primer is universal and can be used on wood, ferrous metal (iron/steel), masonry, and most previously painted surfaces.

Application

Agitation: Shake the can vigorously for 2–3 minutes until the agitator ball moves freely. Continue to shake the can occasionally during the application process.

Distance: Spray lightly from a distance of approximately 6–8 inches (15–20 cm).

Coating: Apply light, even coats. Because this is a “High Build” formula, applying several light coats is the most effective way to fill small surface imperfections and scratches.

After Use: Once finished, invert the can and spray briefly to clear the valve; this ensures the nozzle does not clog for future use.

Colours Available: Grey, Red, and White.

Pack Sizes: 400ml Aerosol Spray.

Coverage / Drying Times

(Based on standard conditions of 20°C)

Surface Dry: 15 minutes (Touch dry).

Hard Dry: 1 – 2 hours (Full film dryness depending on thickness; allow 30 minutes before handling).

Overcoat: After 15 minutes. (Wait 15 minutes between light coats during the initial application).

Theoretical Coverage: Approximately 2m² per 400ml can.

Thinning and Cleaning

Thinning: Not applicable (Aerosol). Shake well for 2–3 minutes before use until the agitator ball is free. Shake occasionally during application.

Cleaning: After use, invert the can and spray briefly to clear the valve and prevent clogging. For accidental overspray or cleaning of surrounding areas, use Palatine White Spirit

Q: What is Carbosol High Build PrimeSpray?
A: It is a versatile, 400ml aerosol primer and undercoat. It is a “high-build” formula, which means it helps to fill in small surface imperfections and provides a thick, solid base for your final topcoat.

Q: What surfaces can I use this on?
A: This is a truly universal base coat. You can use it on wood, ferrous metal (like iron or steel), masonry, and surfaces that have been painted before.

Q: Why should I use a high-build primer instead of a standard one?
A: High-build primers are excellent if the surface you are painting is slightly uneven or has minor scratches. It helps to smooth out the surface more effectively than a thin primer, leading to a much more professional-looking finish once the topcoat is applied.

Q: What colours are available?
A: It comes in White, Grey, and Red. Having these options allows you to choose a primer colour that best matches your final topcoat, making it easier to get full colour coverage with fewer topcoats.

Q: Can I use this for outdoor projects?
A: Yes. It is a solvent-borne, air-drying paint that is durable enough for both interior and exterior use on wood and metal.
