Construction Tip: Tinted Primer

When our Paint Crew comes to paint the interior of a home, they need a few tricks to make sure things go smoothly. One of the ways that they make sure that they aren’t painting over each other’s work is tinting the primer. When painting one of Chatham Habitat’s homes, the paint crew does two coats of primer and two coats of the paint color.

Tinting primer is a really helpful trick when you have a lot of people in one house, all trying to finish two coats of primer without overstepping each other. The light green first coat of primer is easily covered by the second coat, leaving you with clean, white, well-primed walls!
