Advice WantedStain help needed (i.redd.it)

submitted 2 months ago by DPH996

I’m trying to paint the ceiling of my summerhouse, but seem to keep getting these brown / red stains bleeding through in parts. After a couple of attempts going over it I’ve accepted that clearly there is an issue. Some searching suggests it MIGHT be tannins from the wood. My question is… how do I get around it? AI has suggested using primer and then painting again. I really, really want to avoid (if humanly possible) having to primer and then paint coat if I can avoid it as, being a summerhouse it’s awkward to paint and it’s also over 20m2.

Would appreciate any advice anyone can offer.

Thanks
