Advantages of Plaster Primer
Plaster, as a wall primer, offers advantages in dry environments due to its ease of application, quick drying, and smooth surface.
More Suitable Alternatives
For walls prone to dampness and efflorescence, the following materials are recommended:
Waterproof Putty: Offers good moisture resistance, suitable for slightly damp environments.
Cement-based Leveling Layer: Highly moisture-resistant, suitable for severely damp walls.
Moisture-resistant Plasterboard: More suitable for damp environments than ordinary plasterboard.
Essential Preparations Before Construction
Regardless of the material chosen, proper preparation is essential for treating damp and efflorescent walls:
Thoroughly remove any loose layers.
Use a specialized moisture-resistant primer.
Identify and address the source of moisture.
Ensure good ventilation in the work area.
