Prime Exposed Areas and Minor Cracks

Caulking and Priming. Get your house ready to paint.
What happens here
Pour Zinsser Peel Stop Triple Thick primer into a smaller bucket. Use a quality brush (such as a Chinex filament brush, which prevents primer from sticking to bristles) to apply the primer generously. Focus on areas where paint was scraped away, especially bare wood, and around peeling edges to 'glue' them down. Also, apply the primer to any minor cracks to help fill them. The primer's high resin content is essential for sealing and bonding. Apply multiple coats in areas that require extra sealing or where wood is exposed. This priming should be done before any caulking.
Goal: Apply a high-resin primer to all exposed bare wood, peeling paint edges, and minor cracks. This step 'glues down' peeling edges, fills small imperfections, and creates an ideal bonding surface for caulk and subsequent paint layers.
