Ritver Paints & Coatings does not offer a single "all texture primer" but instead provides several primers specifically designed to work with its range of textured coatings. The appropriate primer depends on the type of textured finish you plan to use and the surface you are applying it to. Here are the Ritver primers suited for textured applications:
For general textured finishesRitver All Weather Tex Primer (PW1051): This is the most common primer for Ritver's textured range. It is an alkali-resistant, pure acrylic emulsion-based primer.It is suitable for both interior and exterior use.It is formulated for surfaces such as concrete, plaster, masonry, and gypsum.It creates a good base for various exterior water-based coatings, in addition to textured finishes.
For stone finish texturesRitver Stone Finish Primer (PW1053): This product is specifically designed for use with Ritver's stone finish and other aggregate-textured paints. It is an acrylic copolymer emulsion-based primer containing specially graded silica to enhance adhesion.It adheres to a variety of surfaces, including masonry, brickwork, wood, and primed steel.
For industrial or metal surfacesRitver Penetrating Primer (PW1201): While not explicitly for texture, this alkali-resistant, acrylic copolymer primer creates an excellent base for subsequent layers on masonry surfaces. It is important to match it with a texture paint that is compatible with this primer. Ritver Synthetic Zinc Phosphate Primer: For steel and other metal structures, this primer contains anti-corrosive pigments and creates a firm base for topcoats. While not designed for a "textured" effect, it is a prerequisite for any Ritver topcoat system applied to metal.
How to choose the right primerTo ensure the best result, refer to the specific product data sheet for your desired Ritver texture paint (such as Texture Fine, Texture Medium, or Stone Finish) and confirm which primer is recommended. For most wall texture applications, the All Weather Tex Primer is the correct choice.
