Offering excellent coverage of 350-400 sq ft per gallon, it dries fast within 60-90 minutes and is compatible with all 1- and 2-part polyurethane and enamel topside paints. Easy to apply by brush, roller, or spray, this chromate- and lead-free primer ensures a durable, flexible undercoat that prepares your boat for a flawless finish. Available in white and gray, it’s the trusted choice for professionals and enthusiasts aiming for a long-lasting, high-performance marine paint job. ## Description To ensure the topside paint on your boat adheres well and won't lift or peel, apply TotalBoat Topside Primer first. This one-part premium marine undercoat is compatible with all 1- and 2-part polyurethane and enamel topside paints. Its high-solids formula flows easily, requires only one coat, dries quickly, and is easy to sand. Perfect for priming decks and hulls above the waterline before applying a topside hull paint, such as Total Boat Wet Edge, or a non-skid marine deck paint, such as TotalBoat Total Tread. Topside Primer is easy to apply by brushing, rolling, or spraying on properly prepared wood, fiberglass, gel coat and previously painted surfaces in good condition. Because of the high solids content, it's important to stir this primer for a full five minutes before applying, to ensure it's mixed thoroughly. If needed, thin with TotalBoat Special Brushing Thinner 100 when brushing, and xylene when spraying. As for application tools, we recommend the following: Brush Application - natural bristle brush; Roller Application - 1/8" solvent-safe foam roller cover; Spray Application - 1.1mm spray tip. Most applications will require only one coat. It's not necessary to achieve full hide from Topside Primer, and additional coats should not be applied to achieve full hide. It's more important to have a thin, consistent coat. If a second coat is needed, sand lightly with 220-grit sandpaper and remove any sanding residue with a clean, dry lint-free rag or vacuum. Choose white or gray in quart or gallon sizes. TotalBoat Topside Paint Primer provides excellent coverage, requires fewer coats, dries faster, and is more flexible than other one-part marine-grade primers. Compare to Rustoleum Marine Paint Primer, Pettit Easypoxy Topside Paint Undercoater and Interlux Pre-Kote Primer. All TotalBoat products are formulated to provide great value and great results. 100% made in the USA. ## Features - ONE-PART MARINE PRIMER FOR BOATS provides a durable, flexible undercoat for 1-part and 2-part polyurethane and enamel marine topside paint; for use above the waterline on fiberglass, wood, gelcoat and previously painted surfaces in good condition - COVERS COMPLETELY IN JUST ONE COAT: High-solids primer seals the surface with 1 thin coat; apply a second coat only if a higher build is needed; to fill large surface imperfections use TotalBoat TotalFair epoxy fairing compound before applying Topside Primer - EASY TO APPLY BY BRUSHING, ROLLING OR SPRAYING: Use a natural bristle paint brush, a 1/8 " solvent-safe foam roller, or to spray, use a 1.1mm tip; wear proper personal protection; work in a well-ventilated area; boat primer is chromate-free and lead-free - DRIES FAST, CURES TO A SMOOTH, HARD FINISH: Ready to sand in 60-90 minutes at 65°F; marine paint primer is easy to sand, then just wipe clean and apply a topside finish such as TotalBoat Wet Edge or TotalTread marine non-skid deck paint - AVAILABLE IN WHITE AND GRAY IN QUART AND GALLON SIZES.

It is a slow cure/dry process and self levels pretty nicely. **Q: Can I use this primer and the topside paint on the hull of a wood and canvas canoe?** A: No. You'll need a flexible paint. Contact TotalBoat and ask if there is an additive you could use. The Automotive world has such an additive for painting the flexible bumper covers with enamel. **Q: Can this product be used on concrete?** A: It probably can, although I would probably choose a product that was intended for concrete **Q: Can it be used on bare cast iron?** A: I really don't know but I would imagine that it would. We used it on bare treadplate and it worked very well - even better than I expected. After one year of heavy use, it still looks good. ## Frequently Bought Together - TotalBoat Marine Topside Boat Paint Primer for Fiberglass and Wood (White), 1 Gallon (Pack of 1) - TotalBoat Wet Edge Marine Topside Paint for Boats, Fiberglass, and Wood (White), 1 Gallon (Pack of 1)(Packaging May vary) - TotalBoat Special Brushing Thinner 100 (Quart) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/18122916-totalboat-marine-topside-boat-paint-primer-white-gallon](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/18122916-totalboat-marine-topside-boat-paint-primer-white-gallon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
