spoonpluggergino Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 I am having some problems with the primer not adhesion to the wood after sealing the bait, is there some other preparation after the bait is sealed before applying the primer paint ? I usually I sand down the bait sealer than I wipe it with a damp cloth ad now I also dry the bait in a electric oven to 90 degrees I did switch primer paint in the past i used white rust-oleum primer, now I use Zinsser prime which I really like Any suggestion welcome Thanks Gino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Glenn Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 Have you tried putting the zinsser on the bare wood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierdaddy Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) On many baits I prime, then thin coat epoxy. Doing it this way if I goof up on the paint, I can wipe off the paint and try again without repriming.

Chuck Young Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Try wiping with DNA, sanding it a little with fine paper. Give it some tooth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodieb8 Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 it all depends on what you sealed with? and yes as,Chuck youg stated a scuff for primer bite. we use solvent based primer.it meshes with the sealcoat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
