Benjamin Moore New Aura Gallon Red Foundation Primer.
For a few bright red and yellow colors, interior Aura paint requires a coat of the foundation primer. This ensures two coat coverage. One coat is the foundation, and the second/final coat is the Aura finish.
Please indicate the final color that will be used since the foundation primer is tinted even though the base is already red or yello.
Aura paint uses revolutionary new color science technology to offer features and benefits previously unavailable in paint. This new paint offers guaranteed two-coat coverage with any color over even an unprimed new sheetrock wall. It is super durable, low odor, super coverage, super-time saving paint!
