My local Lowe’s told me it was being discontinued.
For me it’s the right primer for inside and outside jobs.

Not as potent as the original
Bought some on sale, for half off. Was rock hard on the bottom and unusable. Other times ive bought, it works OK, but if you are really trying to cover stains or old brown drywall the ORIGINAL Kilz is where its at.
