Frequently Asked Questions

What is a concrete floor primer and why is it important?

A concrete floor primer is a preparatory coating that seals the surface and improves the adhesion of floor paints or coatings. It helps prevent issues such as peeling, patchy coverage, and premature wear, ensuring a longer-lasting, professional finish.

When should I use a primer on a concrete floor?

A primer should be used on bare, porous, dusty, or newly laid concrete floors. It is especially important in UK garages, warehouses, workshops, and commercial spaces.

Can concrete floor primers be used on old or previously painted floors?

Yes, concrete floor primers can be applied to older or previously painted floors once the surface is clean, sound, and free from loose coatings.

Are concrete floor primers suitable for both indoor and outdoor use?

Yes, there are concrete floor primers suitable for both interior and exterior applications. Exterior primers are formulated to cope with the UK climate, including temperature changes and moisture exposure.

Can I apply concrete floor primer myself?

Concrete floor primers are straightforward to apply using a roller or brush. With proper surface preparation and correct application, both DIY users and professionals can achieve reliable, long-lasting results.

Will using a concrete floor primer improve the lifespan of floor paint?
