A primer helps seal the surface, improves paint adhesion, enhances durability, and ensures a smooth, even finish. It also prevents excessive paint absorption, reducing the number of coats needed.</p>

What Is Emulsion Paint?

This is a type of water-based paint with acrylic or vinyl resins used in its composition, giving it a smooth, durable, and easy-to-clean finish. It offers quick drying, low odour, and very good coverage, making it suitable for both interior and exterior walls. It can also be used on concrete, plaster, and drywall. Also, acrylic emulsion paint is moisture—and fade-resistant and retains the look for a longer period.
