Why you should use a primer

Priming or applying an undercoat on your sailing or motor boat is carried out for various reasons:
For protecting the substrate, usually from water, metal can be protected from corrosion, wood from rotting or GRP from osmosis. The primer serves as a bonding agent and ensures a good adhesion between the substrate and subsequent coats.
