About This Product

Cycle Multi Primer is designed for professional painters and contractors who want one reliable primer product that works across all masonry and plaster surfaces — interior and exterior. This simplifies purchasing, site logistics and application for large builder projects where multiple surface types need to be primed.

While Cycle also offers dedicated interior and exterior primers, Multi Primer delivers adequate performance across both applications — making it the choice for contractors who prioritise simplicity and efficiency.
