Hey. A few months ago, I decided to renovate my living room. The walls were collapsed, reconstructed, and there is a new plaster on the walls, then comes painting. I wanted to do the task myself, but I wasn’t sure how to start and what is the first coat paint after plastering, but I learnt and did it, the results were awesome.

What is the First Coat Paint on New Plaster?

I would love to share how I painted my walls and detail about the 1st coat of paint on new plaster.

  • Once I prepared the surface of the wall by cleaning and sanding, I found the 1st coat of paint on plaster is super important and it’s called the primer. 

  • When I got my other rooms painted recently by some painting service, I observed and learned that the primer helps the paint stick better and creates a smooth, even surface.

  • The primer helps in sealing the plaster and prevents the paint from soaking in too much, which can lead to uneven colour or streaks.

  • After the primer dried, the surface was ready for the actual paint, and it went on much smoother and more evenly. 

  • Without the primer as the first step, the new plaster tends to absorb too much paint, and I could end up using more coats than necessary.

The end result was a fresh, modern look that completely transformed the room. So, Whenever I paint any plastered walls, I don't skip the primer, it makes a huge difference. I hope my answer helped you understand about the first coat of paint on new plaster.
