- New plaster needs putty and primer before the finish coats.
Coverage varies with surface texture, how absorbent the plaster is, and how big a colour change you're making. Buy the estimate, then top up if needed — it's easier than returning unopened tins.

Common questions
- How much wall area does a litre of paint cover?
- On a smooth putty-finished interior wall, roughly 130 square feet per litre per coat. Exterior surfaces are more porous and cover closer to 110. Rough plaster and strong colour changes both use more.
- Do I need primer and putty?
- On new plaster, yes — putty gives the smooth surface and primer gives the paint something to grip. On a repaint of a sound existing surface you usually only need to spot-prime patched areas.
- Why is the answer a range rather than a number?
- Because real coverage depends on how absorbent the plaster is, how textured the surface is, and how big a colour change you are making. The range is honest; a single number would not be.
- Do you give a GST bill?
- Yes. Sky Enterprises is GST registered under 37BULPM3692N1ZQ and issues a proper tax invoice on every purchase, which contractors and builders need for input credit.
- Do you deliver to site?
- We deliver within 10 km of the shop, covering Etcherla and the neighbouring mandals of Srikakulam district. Tell us where the site is and we'll confirm.
- What are your timings?
- Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 9 PM. Sunday, 9 AM to 1 PM. The late closing suits contractors collecting material after finishing on site.
- Do you supply contractors on credit?
- We offer flexible credit terms to contractors who buy from us regularly. Terms depend on the relationship, so come and talk to us about it.
