I just made a new wardrobe with plywood and now I was planning to get it painted. I knew you needed to use a primer before painting walls, but was it necessary for plywood as well? To learn about that, I hired a painter and asked him do you need to seal plywood before painting. The painter told me it's very necessary to seal plywood before painting as it helps the paint to adhere better.

How to Seal Plywood Before Painting?

The painter followed the below process to seal plywood before painting it:

  • He started by preparing the surface of the plywood by sanding it with 220 grit sandpaper. 

  • Next, he cleaned the surface using a tack cloth to remove the dust from it.

  • He started by applying a coat of later primer to the surface of the plywood using a roller. For the corners, he used a paintbrush. 

  • Following that, he left it to dry for a whole day.

  • There were a few brush marks and rough patches on the board, and he used 220-grit sandpaper to sand it lightly. 

After that, he started painting the plywood wardrobe. So, if you are wondering should I seal plywood before painting, then please do. Hope this helps.
