Leyland Trade Acrylic Primer Undercoat - White 750ml

I used this primer for a couple of DIY projects, including prepping some old interior doors and new MDF skirting boards. It applied really smoothly with both a roller and a brush, and dried fairly quickly without any strong odour. The finish it left behind was clean and even, giving the topcoat a perfect base to cling to. Coverage was great — I only needed one coat in most cases, and a light second coat where the surface was a bit more porous. The 2.5L tin went a long way. I didn’t experience any flaking or bubbling, and it bonded nicely to surfaces that had been previously painted. Pros: Great coverage and adhesion Fast drying with minimal smell Works well on both wood and plaster Cons: Needs proper surface prep for best results Not ideal for exterior use

This stuff is great, used to prime freshly plastered walls for wallpaper and to paint a freshly plastered ceiling. Just to note, this stuff is drank in by plaster so don't rely on how much it reckons you can get out of the tin as you'll be disappointed (I needed about 4 litres of the stuff to do 1 coat on 1 1/2 walls and the ceiling. It goes on thick and doesn't run, I didn't need a dust sheet when the ceiling was being done as it didn't drip at all (which is why I opted to use this over a mist coat). The ceiling looked so good after 1 coat that I didn't bother getting it emulsioned over and I'd happily just get someone to use this again on it as it looks great. No horrid smell and dries quickly, quite pricey but worth it 👍

The quality of the paint is good for coverage,.From reviews stating that it has no odour,and it was written down also on the tin,i find this untruthful .I have done just one coat and its very strong odour,got the window open all night ,not able to put the heating on ,its 2 days now and the smell has been distubing.When painting the ceiling it can drop like all paints ,i am fine with that,for me it was just a few drops,but someone indicated that they experienced no dripping,?even a few drops will occure,

Cannot recommend this primer enough - we had matt black walls in our living room (from previous owners). Wanted to go to sage green/grey. Only took one coat of this primer and then 2 coats of silk emulsion and it's completely covered it. We were expecting it to be a massive job to cancel out the black but have been pleasantly surprised with the coverage. Easy to apply and pleasantly thick 👍🏼

Goes quite far. Don't expect it to cover walla like normal emilsionwill still br streaky looking but leaves walls very nice and smooth after sanding and adding to the adhesion. Easy to use and good finish on walls woodwork alike. Covers well reasonably priced and smooths the walls right out. Eater based so jot too messy to clean up

My carpenter recommended this primer. Great product, covers well, dries quickly and the brushes can be washed in soapy water.

Not usually a fan of Leyland paint but this covers and sands well and 2.5 litres you aren't going to get a better deal elsewhere

Excellent paint. No need for mist coat on new plaster. 2 coats and 1 top coat did a great job.
