Plascon Universal Undercoat

Plascon Universal Undercoat paint is a type of paint that is applied before the topcoat or finish coat. It is designed to prepare the surface for painting by providing a smooth, even base that improves the adhesion and durability of the topcoat. Undercoat paint is usually applied after the primer and before the topcoat. It can be used on a variety of surfaces, including wood, metal, and masonry.

Undercoat paint is available in both oil-based and water-based formulations. Oil-based undercoat paint is known for its excellent adhesion and durability, while water-based undercoat paint is more environmentally friendly and easier to clean up. When selecting an undercoat paint, it is important to choose a product that is compatible with the topcoat or finish coat you plan to use.

Undercoat paint can also be tinted to match the color of the topcoat. This helps to ensure an even, consistent finish. In addition to providing a smooth base for the topcoat, undercoat paint can also help to hide imperfections and create a uniform appearance.

It is important to apply undercoat paint properly for best results. The surface should be clean and dry before applying the undercoat. The undercoat should be applied in thin, even coats using a brush or roller. It is important to allow the undercoat to dry completely before applying the topcoat.

Overall, undercoat paint is an important part of the painting process that can help to ensure a smooth, durable, and long-lasting finish.
