Forgot the primer. What now?

Hello everyone,

I have a small problem and would like some advice. I painted the glued laminated beams of my terrace roof with wood preservative primer and white topcoat paint from Remmers. Unfortunately, the paint is now turning yellowish. I have already found out that I should have used isolating primer. Then it probably wouldn't have happened.

How can I correct this now? Is it enough to wait a few months until the glued laminated beams have "off-gassed" and then paint again with topcoat paint? Does it help to apply a layer of isolating primer on the paint beforehand, or does it only work directly on the wood?

Regards

Hello Midde,

not advice from me myself. But I would ask Remmers themselves about it once. Describe the situation in detail, mentioning the products used.
I think you should get the most informed answer that way, especially since you have already purchased a high-quality product. You can also expect some support there.

I found holzschutz - at - remmers.de as the address for this. Alternatively, through the dealer you bought from. Personally, I would prefer to speak directly with the manufacturer.

Good luck! Mini

Hi,

thanks for the tip. I contacted the manufacturer and received a quick response. Painting over with the topcoat wouldn't help. It would discolor again. I was recommended 3 in 1 insulating varnish. I will try that now!
