What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this primer for excellent coverage, fast drying, and reliable performance across surfaces. Most highlight strong, even coverage that hides dark colors effectively in one coat, with many noting it works well on challenging surfaces like OSB and wood doors. The quick-drying formula accelerates projects and allows faster topcoat application. Users appreciate the minimal odor compared to traditional products, smooth application with brush or roller, and effortless cleanup with soap and water. A few report needing two coats on very dark colors, and rare cases mention blistering, but these concerns are vastly outweighed by positive feedback. Overall, reviewers consider it an excellent, user-friendly choice.

Great product for painting the block walls in my basement. Can either be left on its own or as a base for a color. Great coverage.

Does not cover dark stains

I am on coat 4, and it is still not covering the dark putty behind it. DO not recommend. This product is not comparable to kills.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Primer went on smooth and dried fast. Covered the wall well and created a nice even base for paint. Definitely a reliable primer I would use again.
