Thread Continues Below... Thread Continues Below... Can I paint plywood without priming?If you want to paint plywood, you'll first need to apply a primer. General-purpose wood primer will give you a smooth, nonporous base coat to work with. The base coat will prevent the pigment in the paint from being absorbed by the plywood, requiring many layers and creating muted colors.
How do you prepare plywood for painting?If you must sand the plywood, lightly scuff the surface with 120-grit sandpaper. Next, wipe the wood down with a rag soaked in mineral spirits. Once the wood is dry you can apply primer with a brush or roller. Once the primer has cured, apply the paint!
What happens if you don't prime plywood before painting?If you paint a project made out of plywood with latex paint, not paint & primer in one, and don't use a primer, you'll find that you use twice as much paint for the first coat, as you will for the second coat. That's because that first coat is soaking into the wood, sealing the pores.
What happens if you don't prime wood before painting?What happens if you don't prime bare wood is not pretty. Similar to new drywall, raw wood soaks up paint like a sponge. As a result, your surface will look blotchy since pores in the woodwork unevenly absorb the paint. More importantly, the painted wood will likely peel in two or three years without primer.
