    DESCRIPTION
    ECO Primer/Undercoat is a “hybrid”, water thinnable alkyd coating intended for new interior or exterior woodwork.  This primer is the preferred foundation for any ECO or HOLLANDLAC paint system because of its ability to penetrate and lock onto new wood.  If absorption of primer occurs, reprime to obtain uniform film build before painting.

    SURFACE PREPARATION
    Surface should be clean, dry and free of dust, oil, grease and all foreign material that would affect adhesion.  Prior to priming, all cracks or surface blemishes should be filled, sanded smooth and cleaned thoroughly.  Shellac all knots before priming.
