What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this primer for exceptional coverage, fast drying, and ease of use. Most note one coat effectively blocks dark colors and creates a smooth base, with many highlighting the rapid drying time—often less than a day—keeping projects on schedule. Reviewers consistently commend the minimal odor compared to traditional primers, making it ideal for enclosed spaces. The smooth application works well with brushes, rollers, and challenging surfaces like OSB and wood doors. Cleanup requires only soap and water. A small number report needing two coats over very bold colors, but overall satisfaction remains exceptionally high.

Wonderful primer - covered DARK paint!

Would Recommend

Needed to cover a room with VERY dark purple walls with essentially ivory colored paint. Asked an associate what to use as primer; he pointed me to this. Was inexpensive (relative to the paint), spread well, and covered nicely. Took two coats, but again, very dark paint below. Might have work with a single coat, but had enough primer, so why not. Dried for a second coat in about 20-30 minutes. Topcoat came out perfect.

This paint went on easily and covered very well. It was mixed nicely from the store. I felt it went on smooth and was easy to clean up when I dropped some.
