It is a base coat for unusually rough plaster or concrete, not a finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy a primer matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBare plaster and concrete are highly absorbent. Left unprimed, they pull the first coat of paint into the surface, which wastes material and leaves the finish uneven. A primer seals the shell and gives the topcoat something consistent to sit on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere Gunzite fits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGunzite is deliberately heavy bodied. On a rough or sandblasted shell that viscosity acts as a fill coat, knocking back the texture and leaving a much smoother profile for the finish. It is the primer to reach for when the surface is coarser than a standard primer can handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePairing it correctly\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse Gunzite only as an undercoat for Poxolon or Zeron. Do not use epoxy primers in conjunction with rubber base paints. Coverage runs 100 to 150 square feet per gallon, so work out the surface area before you buy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Olympic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48633932284116,"sku":"KEL-65-6002","price":182.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_1a893a41-626c-4b58-ac0d-69604b92dae5.gif?v=1788817538","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/1-gallon-gunzite-epoxy-primer","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
