As CN alluded to...no priming needed!!! Why? Because their IS NO primer for horizontal use!! None exists. At least none a homeowner would pay for...& even then.... 1) How tight-together is your flooring? 2) Skirted-in along all sides...to the ground? 3) Any floor-venting in place? 4) How high off actual ground-level?

Not only did the elastomeric coating peel badly within 2 years ( 5 yr old wood steps and deck and raised garden bed) but we now believe the peeling paint is killing all the plants near the wood we painted! Previously all healthy plants nearby are dying since we used this product and it started to peel. The national paint company has said they would replace with a solid color stain to cover the elastomeric coating, said it peeled because of cold temps in our area or moisture getting under coating. However other paint companies ( one being Bejamin Moore) in our area think that may be a bad idea. Afraid to sand this off as that may spread more to the landscaping. Anyone with similar problem? Any suggestions appreciated .

1. Scrape the loose paint away. 2.Sand 3. Use A-100 Exterior Fast Dry Stain Blocking Alkyd Wood Primer and whatever SW paint is recommended. The primer has chemicals to resist mildew/algae.

The wrapped canvas is 1.5" thick, which results in bumping. I also have a theme and size requirements that haven't been met other than with the Great Big Canvas selection. With the wall peel the electric panel will be immediately available, so I'm not worried about that. I can do a test of its stickiness (too much/too little). I had not thought of whether it is thick enough to hide the panel outline. Hmmmm...I may have to resort to affixing lath (or my go-to: a wood yardstick) to the top (and bottom?) from which it could hang if the peel is too thin. The 35"x48" ships for free, so that's a plus. Here's the peel I'm considering to coordinate with a framed print and material that will hide the electric and water hookups: Thank you for all the help in identifying potential pitfalls.
