Pro Wall Primer
The product that started Silver Bullet. Developed after a call-back on one of my first mural jobs, and refined on problem walls ever since: peeling prints, lifting seams, inconsistent adhesion. Pro Wall Primer creates a stable, uniform substrate on porous surfaces so your graphic goes up and stays up.
British Sign Awards Product of the Year 2019. Water-based primer and sealer. Dries clear, low odour, quick drying, and cleans up with soap and water. For pasted wallpaper and self-adhesive print media. Stops seams opening from splice joining, and protects existing emulsion and plasterboard.
Ideal surfaces: Bare plaster · Standard emulsion · Plasterboard · Lining paper
Always test your media first. If your wall has a scrubbable, gloss or lacquered finish it isn’t a porous surface. Get in touch before ordering and I’ll tell you what to do with it.
Format: 5 litres | Coverage: up to 75 m² per 5 L container (15 m²/litre), depending on surface porosity | Drying: quick, depending on wall porosity and room temperature | Application: brush (2.5–3" synthetic) or medium pile microfibre roller sleeve | Finish: dries clear with a slight sheen
Application temperature 10–32°C. Store between 4°C and 32°C — do not allow to freeze, it is not freeze-thaw stable. Contains 1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one; may produce an allergic reaction. VOC: this product contains a maximum of 1 g/l against an EU limit of 30 g/l (Cat: IIA/g., 2010).

| Product name | Silver Bullet® Pro Wall Primer |
| Type | A clear, water-based acrylic resin primer & sealer for porous surfaces |
| Format | 5 Litre |
| Coverage | Up to 75 m² per 5 L container (15 m²/litre), depending on surface porosity |
| Drying | Quick drying. Time depends on how porous the wall is and the room temperature. Must be completely dry before applying media |
| Coats | Apply one generous coat. Bare plaster and filled areas are very porous and may need a second |
| Application | Brush (2.5–3" synthetic) or medium pile microfibre roller sleeve |
| Finish | Dries clear with a slight sheen. An even sheen means the wall is sealed and ready for media; any matt patches need another coat |
| Paste-up media | Forms a barrier between paste and wall, so seams stay tight |
| Self-adhesive media | Leaves an even sheen for the adhesive to grip, because matt patches are where media lifts |
| Odour | Low odour |
| Base | Water-based acrylic resin |
| Use on | Smooth, flat, porous interior surfaces: bare plaster, standard emulsion, plasterboard, lining paper, filled areas, MDF |
| Not suitable for | Exterior surfaces, textured walls, and scrub-clean, gloss or lacquered finishes. Silver Bullet X®, an additive for Pro Wall Primer, is in development for scrub-clean paints |
