Does Bedec Barn Paint require a primer?

Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering well
Ensure the surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, free of contaminants) and that a suitable primer was used if necessary. Check application temperature and humidity conditions.
Uneven finish or brush marks visible
Ensure paint is stirred thoroughly. Apply in thin, even coats. Avoid overworking the paint. Maintain a wet edge during application.
Color appears different than expected
Colors can vary based on lighting, surface texture, and the number of coats applied. Ensure sufficient coats have been applied and view in natural light. Check the batch number for consistency if multiple tins were used.
Paint is too thick or too thin
Thinning is generally not recommended, but if absolutely necessary for application in very cold conditions, a small amount of water may be added sparingly. Consult the product's technical data sheet for specific recommendations.
