What happens here

Start applying the bonding primer to the wall. The video demonstrates painting over a textured vinyl wallpaper. When rolling, move the inner feed roller in an upward motion along the wall. Simultaneously, gently squeeze the trigger on the roller's handle as you roll upwards. This technique prevents paint from 'waterfalling' or dripping out of the roller and onto the floor. Aim for a thin coat of bonding primer, as applying it too heavily can prevent proper bonding and slow down drying time. The inner feed roller operates at a low pressure, typically around 400 PSI, which helps control paint flow.

Goal: Apply a bonding primer to the wall surface, especially over challenging surfaces like vinyl wallpaper, using the inner feed roller for efficient and even coverage.

so we're out here today uh we're paying over wallpaper which i really do not like doing but uh the customer's budget this is what they wanted done it's kind of like a vinyl wallpaper and you definitely got to prime it first customer didn't want to pay the money to have it all removed it'd be a pretty large expense to get it removed re-skim coated and stuff so we're priming it with a bonding primer and rolling it on using an inner feed roller give you a few tips and tricks using this interfeed roller i'm always rolling along squeezing my trigger when i'm going up that way the paint doesn't waterfall out of the roller and spill all over the floor so as i'm going up in an upward motion i'm rolling you can see how easy the inner feed roller is using it don't ever have to dip so i'm just rolling it on if you need to lay it out you can go back lay it out but this is a bonding primer that i just wanted on really thin because we're going to be rolling our wallpaper afterwards with paint the inner feed roller runs at extremely low pressure i run it typically around 400 psi got to get just a thin coat on if you put your bonding primer on too heavy it will not act as a bonding primer because it'll dry too slow this wallpaper is has a it's really grainy got kind of it's very um like kind of like a sandpaper so the bonding primer will get down in there bond really well once again it's not the ideal position but it really comes down to customer budget what they can afford what their expectation is it's always best to prime wallpaper with an oil-based primer because your wallpaper does have a water-based paste underneath it this water can't penetrate this because it's a thick thick vinyl industrial wallpaper that water will penetrate in so it won't lift up the seams inner feed roller also
