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.

Great Coverage

Would Recommend

Got this tinted in grey 2 and paired it with 1/2” & 3/8” nap rollers. The 1/2” roller really helped hide damage on the drywalls and the second layer using the 3/8 made for a nice smooth base for the paint.

Wall panel

I like how easy it was to use. It says it has a 30min dry time but i feel like it was alot faster then that. Maybe bc i was painting wall paneling.

don't even try to spray

Would Not Recommend

Tried to filter, wouldn't filter - should have taken the hint. Tried to spray(graco magnum) and it clogged every 5 - 15 seconds. Spent more time trying to unclog the sprayer than spraying. Tried some leftover kils, and it sprayed fine, so not the sprayer.
