<h2>Steps to Follow For Using the Dulux Oil-based Wood Primer</h2>
<h3>Preparation</h3>
<p>Ensure wood is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or debris. Sand in the direction of the grain and treat knots with Knotting Agent.</p>
<h3>How to Apply the Dulux Oil-based Wood Primer</h3>
<p>Stir thoroughly before use. Apply evenly with brush or roller. For end grain, apply a second coat within 20 minutes to prevent moisture penetration.</p>

<li>Clean tools immediately with Dulux Brush Cleaner or mineral turpentine</li>
<li>Store product upright in a cool, dry place</li>
<li>Dispose of empty containers responsibly</li>

<h3>How Much Dulux Oil-based Wood Primer Do You Need? – Coverage Calculator</h3>
<p>This primer covers approx. 10–13m² per litre per coat.</p>
<ul>
<li>Measure your timber surface area</li>
<li>Divide by 11 for average coverage</li>
