Hey guys,

just a Question,

I maybe using an ordinary plywood for a wall for my storage area at the back of the house.

If i'm gonna paint it straight away , the plywood will absorb the paint right?

ano kaya magandang pang primer or putty para hindi masyadong magastos sa paint?

Boysen website recommends the following steps:

1. Flatwall enamel for primer
2. Glazing putty
3. Finish with Quick Drying Enamel

I have observed though that glazing putty and "quick drying" enamel take a long time to dry.

Is this outdoor? Why not try hardiflex? Hindi nabubulok and anay proof.

Interesting that you use flatwall enamel as primer on plywood; sounds permanent although will come out relatively more expensive than latex. (Have always used Latex but then again it's what we were taught in school to prime our surfaces before painting). ü
