Helmi Primer is a water-based, matt acrylate primer for interior projects where good adhesion and a smooth finish really matter. It’s commonly used for furniture, cabinets, doors, window frames, skirtings and architraves.
Please Note:
MDF Surfaces: Helmi Primer is not suitable for MDF surfaces; we advise instead using Otex Adhesion Primer. As oil-based primers are for preferable on MDF.
Pine Surfaces: Helmi Primer is not suitable for pine surfaces. We advise using Tikkurila Multistop Primer, as this product features knot-blocking properties.
Recommended Wood Paint:
For best results Helmi Primer should be followed up with a topcoat from the Helmi range.
Helmi 10 → Matt Finish
Helmi 30 → Semi-Matt Finish
Helmi 80 → Gloss Finish
Tools We Recommend for the Best Finish
Using the right tools will make a huge difference. Our team always suggests:
Alchemist 9-inch Microfiber Roller → Brilliant for avoiding streaks or patchiness
Alchemist 4-inch Roller → For hard-to-reach areas
Palm Pro → A good quality angled brush for cutting in.
