More about this product
Koopmans Primer Aqua provides the perfect base for all Koopmans topcoats. Ensure the surface is degreased (e.g., using B Clean) for optimal adhesion. After priming, lightly sand the surface to enhance the final coat’s adherence. Suitable topcoats include Koopmans Garant SB, which is ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. Koopmans Primer Aqua is easy to apply and delivers professional results. Need tips for painting? Explore our handy guides. While many believe acrylic and alkyd can’t be combined, professional painters frequently use fast-drying acrylic primers before applying topcoats. This allows for multiple coats in one day.
