Hello everyone,

Now that our interior plaster (gypsum plaster) has dried and the heating technician is expected soon, I wanted to paint the utility room beforehand. No wallpaper or anything, just paint, so the entire wall with the equipment, etc., looks "clean."

Which type of paint should I use?
When I look online, I find all kinds of advice: with primer, without primer, emulsion paint, silicate dispersion paint... it's more confusing than helpful.

What is the correct procedure?
How have you handled this?

Thank you very much!

Yes, I am contradicting my own arguments because now I think: maybe it’s a bit over the top?!

But if I were looking for a suitable, vapor-permeable paint for the plaster, what could I use? And should I skip the primer altogether ("plastic soup")?
