It dries 100% clear
Loved the easy application and the drying time it took. We put a sealer on top of this product and neither changed the color of the floor.

Doesn't Kill Odor
Got this to, you know, kill odor on masonry. Cleaned, applied as requested, and now the smell is worse than before. It does nothing. Don't waste your money. Now I have to figure out how to get this worthless stuff up so that I can apply something that's going to work. Extremely frustrating.

The smell is finally gone!
My sister has special needs cats with bladder issues that made an enclosed concrete patio smell horrible. After several treatments with enzyme cleaner and wiping the whole room down, the smell was still present. Someone online recommended Odor Killing primer and we decided to give it a try. We expected the smell to decrease, but this primer completely got rid of it. I wish we had known about this product before, it would have saved us so much time and effort. I would definitely recommend it to a...

Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We tried enzyme killer, peroxide, bleach, alcohol, vinegar, baking soda.... The cat urine smell would not budge! We finally decided... Forget it. We are painting the floor. We got this odor blocker and did just one coat so far. Came in today and the smell is gone! We are still going to do two more coats. The best part... It dries clear! Absolutely love it.

Dries clear
I was dealing with a really strong odor that was left by a renter and one of my homes. We concluded that the children were actually urinating in the floor of the bedroom. This product did not completely cover the odor. I used 2 gallons of this product and then had to go get another gallon of Kilz. I will concede that the odor was really strong and that there is a possibility that any other product would have given the same results.

Big problems
I bought this to help clean up the odor on my floors and walls from my pets as we were getting new flooring and doing other renovations, such as painting the interior walls a new color. A day after I painted various areas of my sub floor, and it had completely dried, I had spilled a little water when I filled up my watering can. The primer turned cloudy and got tacky again. The other area I used it became an even bigger problem. I used it to prime a wall that had been textured but not yet primed...
