ColourPicker Explained

In general we sort colours for products into 2 main groups - ‘Ready Mixed’ and ‘Tinted’.
Tinted colours will always be more expensive than Ready Mixed colours as they need to be produced at the time of order using a tinting machine dispensing colourant into a base*.
During busy periods, this means that tinted colours could take longer, for example – a ready mixed colour ordered on a 3-5 day delivery might arrive within 3 days, however a tinted colour might take the full 5 days to arrive.

To find Ready Mixed colours, search "ready mixed" or select the Ready Mixed 'colour chart'. To see Tinted colours select a colour chart such as RAL, BS, NCS, etc. or search for a colour/hue to see available or related options.

To ensure fair pricing, we split colours into ‘Price Bands’ to group together similar priced colours. If you wish to search for the cheapest tinted colours, always select Price Band 1.

We make every effort to list all available colours, however we also offer a colour match service which can be accessed by contacting our Technical Team on 0113 245 5450 (option 2) or emailing [email protected]

*Colours are sold in the nearest tin size but actual paint volume per tin may vary up to 10% depending on colour

Description

Coo-Var Shellac Prime-All

Coo-Var Shellac Prime-All is an efficient, heavy-duty shellac-based primer designed to block stains and odours effectively. Ideal for dealing with difficult stains such as nicotine, oils, watermarks, and even tar and bitumen, this product acts as an excellent base layer for a variety of finishing paints, both oil and water-based. Its quick-drying formula means a second coat can be applied within 30 minutes, ensuring faster project completion.

Application and Surface Use

This product works exceptionally well on a wide range of surfaces, including timber, wood composites, plaster, cement, and brickwork. It is specifically formulated to seal problematic areas that may bleed through subsequent layers of paint, such as those treated with tar, bitumen, or creosote. Additionally, it can be used as a spot primer for exterior surfaces. Application should be done with minimal brushwork, avoiding over-brushing to ensure an even, matt finish.

Drying Time and Overcoating

One of the standout features of this primer is its rapid drying time. Touch dry within 10 minutes and ready for overcoating within 30 minutes, it is a great choice for projects requiring quick turnarounds. A second coat can be applied as needed, depending on the surface’s porosity and the level of staining. Make sure to allow a full 24 hours for the product to reach its final hardness before applying finishing coats.

Precautions and Limitations

This product should not be used in environments with high humidity or low temperatures, as these conditions can affect drying times and overall performance. Avoid applying on surfaces that have not been properly cleaned, as this may affect adhesion. Additionally, avoid over-brushing during application, as it can cause an uneven finish. For surfaces not explicitly listed, refer to the product's data sheet or contact technical support for advice.

Compatibility

Once fully dry, this primer can be overcoated with a variety of finishing coats, including both oil and water-based paints. It works well in combination with other Coo-Var products, especially those designed for use on timber, brickwork, or cement. For long-lasting results, ensure that the recommended top coats are used and that proper surface preparation is followed.

Health and Safety

This product contains substances that are classified as highly flammable, including Propan-2-ol. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and wear protective gear. Avoid breathing vapours and prevent contact with eyes or skin.
