Primer for painting exterior walls
I am in the process of repainting my house. I need a primer for the
exterior stucco wall, eave mount fascia wood boards, the aluminum gutters that are attached to the fascia board etc... The paint store suggested that I get a special primer for each surface - a masonry sealer for the stucco wall, for the fascia board use a wood primer and for the gutters use something for metal... But as I pressure cleaned them, the original paint on the walls, the gutters and fascia boards are still there, there are spots that were removed by the pressure cleaning but that is less than 5%. Therefore the primer will be applied not over the raw materials - stucco, wood, alumnimum, but over the existing paint which is arcylic. Following that logic, I would say it makes no sense to use a wood primer to paint on a fascia board that is covered by more than 95% existing paint, hence I need a primer for existing paint surface, right? or am I overanalyzing? Thanks in advance, MC |
