    Is says they should be laid print side down, painted using oil based paints.

    As its an OSB floor, a primer like Zinsser Bullseye wouldn't be a bad idea to seal it first or thin the first coat of the floor paint and use that as the primer.

    Yeah, thin with white spirit, the Bullseye is a High Adhesion Primer and binds the surface together on drying unlike Leyland Primer/undercoat which I don't feel would be tough enough. Myself I would use the Bullseye, although KIAB may disagree as he promotes the Everbuild sealer (406 I think), never used it so can't comment if it's suitable for use on timber.

  7. Would have put down a timber floor much better than osb.
