Tikkurila Otex Adhesion Primer
Select your colour
Tikkurila Otex Adhesion Primer is a quick-drying, solvent-based alkyd primer and undercoat that grips the surfaces other paints won't – glass, tiles, melamine, PVC, aluminium, galvanised metal and old alkyd or acid-cured paint – as well as wood, MDF and chipboard. It levels well, often needs no sanding, and can be overcoated with water- or solvent-based paints. Choose White, or a colour mixed to order.
At Dawes on Goldhawk Road, Shepherd's Bush, we tint Otex Adhesion Primer to order while you wait. Not sure which primer your surface needs? Ask us. Call us on 020 8748 6711 or pop in.
