Yes, but it's not as good as drywall primer, and will probably give less coverage.

What type of paint should you use on a basement brick wall?

A good oil based primer, then an oil based concrete paint.


Can you use latex primer oil base for a concrete?

You have a contradiction ! - Latex primer CAN NOT BE oil based.


Can you paint over wet primer?

You can paint over your old primer, just make sure to clean your wall with TSP. And for your second question, to paint over your concrete wall you wanna make sure it's primed to seal all the pores in the concrete.


Is it necessary to use primer under interior wall paint?

It is not necessary to use a primer for interior walls, but using one helps with adhesion and smoothness of the paint.


If you use latex in your bathroom what kind of primer do you use on new drywall?

PVA is a better primer for new drywall. Do you need it, not really. Any good latex primer will do the job just as well. I guess it really just depends on what you expect your primer to do. Cheap primers will seal the drywall, but not much more. I find bonding primers and pva primers will provide a much more solid platform for topcoats. They may cost more and be a little overkill, but they will provide you with layer of primer that will allow your topcoat to dry in even. You can also dry a high build primer, which is the product I prefer to use. They give you a great platform to work from, and since they are usually about 3 mils thicker that standard primer, they fill in a lost of voids in your wall. If you go with this kind of primer, it is best to spray it. You really can't achieve the mil build up you need from a brush and roller application. If you use the roller application, and are worried about really sealing the wall and filling voids, I would recommend two coats of primer.

What adhesive do you use to glue insulation to a concrete wall?

There is a type of silicone caulking compound which is specifically designed to be used with concrete; this will work to attach insulation (but only if the concrete is DRY).

Can you use a dirt wall as a form when pouring concrete?

It is possible to use a dirt wall when pouring concrete, but the liquid of the concrete will not make neat edges. The wall must be tamped firmly. This will work on shorter projects, but not on taller ones.

Can you use an oil kilz then use latex paint on wall board?

yes Yes, an oil paint will adhere to latex. It doesn't work in reverse, latex will not adhere to oil that is dry, but oil adheres to dry latex. If you were a purist, though, you would sand down the woodwork before repainting it. That would give the best result.


Do you need primer if painting color over white wall?

If the white is glossy, I would use a white primer. If not,then I would put paint colour directly/


Can you use water based paint over Beauti-Tone fast dry primer sealer?

Yes, you can.


Can you use white latex base for a primer?

Well it's better than nothing, but quite possibly not as thick or well covering as primer is. If your wall is already white or even a pale colour, it won't make a lot of difference. If the wall is new drywall, or a dark colour you shouldn't use this.


Had wallpaper on the bathroom walls I removed the wall paper now I'm wanting to paint the wall what kind of primer should I use?

You should carefully inspect the wall board for any damage. If the paper "skin" of the wall board has peeled off with the wall paper, you will have to patch that before you can paint. Otherwise, I would recommend a good quality latex primer.
