primer bleeding???
Hello all,
I'm bussy painting some doors there has never been anything on it they are still raw looking, I have primed them but there is yellow tinge coming thru, then I primed them for the second time and still, will this bleeding ever stop, what If I painted them with a dark brown/taupe color would that hide the bleeding?
Thanks

the most likely cause of bleeding is the wrong primer. If you used a latex primer the oils or tannins in the wood will bleed [water stains also] A dark color will only hide it if the paint stays dark[it camoflagues not covers] If you top coat with an oil base paint the stains will not bleed through otherwise you need to use a oil base primer. Kilz works well.
