What Customers Are Saying

This bonding primer is highly effective for a range of painting projects, providing strong adhesion and smooth application. It offers excellent coverage and sealing capabilities, even on difficult surfaces like paneling, cabinets, and previously painted walls. The primer is described as thick and high-quality, often requiring only one or two coats to create a solid foundation for the top coat. Many users found it successful for both interior and exterior applications, helping paint adhere to slick or problematic surfaces. While a few customers reported issues with adhesion or peeling, the majority were very satisfied with the primer's performance and would recommend it, especially for challenging painting jobs.

Using on wood paneling

Would Recommend

We washed the paneling and then applied the bonding primer. It covered beautifully. We did put 2 coats on the panel just to make sure. Using the paint was very easy and the walls look great.

Nice thick consistency. Two different pieces of furniture had bleed thru after multiple coats. Finally had to use Kilz oil based primer to seal the pieces.

Great Primer!

Would Recommend

Great for repainting!

Would Recommend

I bought this for a kitchen repainting. I wanted it PERFECT! So, I bought this primer and the special Cabinet Paint. This primer is KILLER! on previously paints surfaces! Silky smooth finish, grips like mad and one coat covers completely. A work of warning is needed however. I also used it on the cabinet doors which had been strimmed to bare wood. It is obviously designed to "grip" in some fashion as it gripped the bare wood and raised the grain. I had to re sand the doors and apply a second coa...
