Members neoflox Posted November 5, 2009 Members Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'd like to know that too. I did not sand or prime my board, just 2 layers of colour and 2 of clear coat. Looks neat, nice structure and works for me. Impending smaller, second gorm requests answers to OPs question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members H.R. Shove and Stuff Posted November 5, 2009 Members Share Posted November 5, 2009 Why does this only have to do with gorm guys? Primer: A primer is a preparatory coating put on materials before painting. Priming ensures better adhesion of paint to the surface, increases paint durability, and provides additional protection for the material being painted. I think finish is usually used on stained wood, but I'm sure it can be used on painted. It increases durability of the stain/paint and can (depending on the kind you get) make it shiny, like a guitar's finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mis5dis6gis7 Posted November 5, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 5, 2009 Its not necessarily for Gorm guys. But in the situation of a gorm pedal board, is it helpful to use a primer or not and samsies on a finish. Finish being a clear coat or something of that sort.
