Can I paint over solvent paint?Updated a month ago

Yes, we recommend sanding the solvent down first to create a key (a slightly roughened surface) for the new paint to adhere to.

Our paint has a very high pigment content, which means a primer isn’t generally required. However, should you prefer to apply a primer first, we recommend using a water-based primer such as the Zinnsser Bulls Eye option.  
Depending on the existing surface and colour, you may find that an extra coat or two is needed for full coverage.
