How to Apply Wise Owl Primer:

1. Surface Preparation:
   Clean thoroughly. Remove grease, dirt, wax, and flaking paint. Fill in cracks or holes.

2. Mixing:
   Stir thoroughly with a circular, lifting motion until uniform.

3. Application Tools:
   Use a brush, roller, or spray. For brush applications, use a high-quality nylon/polyester brush and 3/8” nap roller.
   For spraying, thin with up to 10% water.

4. Dry Time:

   • Touch-dry in 1 hour

   • Recoat in 4–6 hours (some stains may require two coats)

   • Allow 24 hours before applying topcoat

5. Clean-Up:
   Use soap and water to clean tools immediately after use.

Expert Tips for Best Results:

• Always prime Depression-era furniture and high-bleed woods like mahogany, cherry, and knotty pine—these are prone to stubborn bleed-through.

• Let each coat dry for 6 hours when stain-blocking to maximize effectiveness.

• For high-traffic areas like floors, tiles, or cabinets, priming is non-negotiable—it ensures maximum durability and long-term results.
