Applying primer methods - Tile Advice

[Callum barker]

Hi guys
How does everyone apply primer do you use a old sponge and sponge it on or do you use a large paint brush?
Cheers in advance

Paint brush . Paint roller on large floors

as above ^^

12 inch roller and a 4 inch brush for the corners

Sponge, I find paint brush is messy and slow. I can prime a whole bathroom with a sponge and not spill a drop.

I like to sponge the floor to see how many lumps and bumps are in it Lol

Always use a large brush but going to try the sponge next time.

I've had to use a sponge when I didn' have a brush and I find it takes ages to rinse out the primer . But maybe you don't do that ?

Does the nozzle not cake up on you Antonio?

A brush is the most effective way to apply primer, to get a good key. Not the quickest way though for sure.

In short, it never satisfies you anything ....
that's fine with me,
you are becoming like my wife, nothing is ever good ...
when the nozzle no longer works, I change it ....
I prefer to work standing up. rather than on the ground.
and time is money
