Hey,
the seller of the garden shed gives the following advice:
“Tips for assembling your garden shed
The wall planks should be treated with a clear primer in the tongue and groove areas during assembly. Afterwards, the entire interior and exterior should be primed. Once the primed wood is dry (24-48 hours), the garden shed should be painted on the outside with a long-lasting, breathable wood stain or an opaque topcoat.”
Is there a specific reason why the tongue and groove areas need to be primed during assembly? Because of limited space behind the shed (neighbor boundary), the following steps might be somewhat difficult. I thought I could prime and paint everything before assembling.
Is this possible, or am I missing something?
Thanks!

How much do you typically need?
The garden shed will be painted in that classic Swedish red, with the windows and door in white. Does anyone have any tips on whether a similar red is available as a 3-in-1 product? Remmers doesn’t have it in the 3-in-1 version.
Otherwise, just use a primer first and then apply the red as a separate coat?
