Information Paper 17/87 Factory applied priming paints for exterior joinery

Abstract
The primer plays a key role in the performance of wood finishes, forming the bond between the wood surface (the substrate) and the finishing coat. Good primer performance is therefore essential if satisfactory results are to be achieved with exterior finishing systems. This paper presents the results of tests carried out to establish the weathering performance of currently available factory-applied primers and gives advice to specifiers and joinery manufacturers on their selection and use.
