primeira demão
1. The initial layer of paint, varnish, primer, or other coating applied to a surface
Apply the first coat of paint evenly across the wall before adding the second coat.

2. In construction or finishing work, the preliminary coating that prepares the surface for additional layers
The first coat of primer helps the paint adhere better to the wood.
A primeira demão de primer ajuda a tinta a aderir melhor à madeira.
In both Brazilian and American construction contexts, proper application of the first coat is considered essential for durability and finish quality. In Brazil, painting is often done during dry seasons, and the first coat is carefully inspected before proceeding to subsequent layers. This term is standard in professional construction, automotive, and furniture finishing industries across both countries.
