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.

I was expecting the paint to fully hide the stains on my ceiling tiles. It’s mostly hidden but it will need another coat.

paint after bonding

Would Recommend

To stick together for a long time you must first bond. Then the scuffles of life will brush off without peeling away.

It does the trick!

Would Recommend

After cleaning & lightly sanding the kitchen cabinets, this bonding worked beautifully. It's very thick and the instructions says to not thin, so I didn't. It worked great.

Fantastic coverage

Would Recommend

Best primer I’ve ever used to cover stained wood. Excellent spreading and excellent coverage of very dark stained wood. I highly recommend this primer. I’ll never used another primer again! Color of wood I primed is in 1st pic. Grey in second pic is ONE coat of primer on that dame dark stained wood. Painting over it was a breeze!

Great Primer

Would Recommend

We had wallpaper in a few rooms that left the walls stained and many shades. This primer did a great job covering all that and making the walls ready for the paint. It also worked well for covering up a bright color that needed a primer before the color we chose.

Great product helped me with a difficult problem

Would Recommend

I needed something to cover up some acrylic enamel paint that was put on top of a water based paint with no surface prep, which led to lots of peeling. Bonding primer is a great catch all for messy situations like mine. Some light sanding and 2 coats of this did the trick! The new paint looks great and is sticking to the surface of the smooth slab doors nicely.

Magical Product for converting oil based trim

Would Recommend

I used this bonding primer to convert oil based trim to latex. Everything else I tried gave terrible results. This product did the job perfectly. I was able use this primer and then add on my latex semi-gloss paint in one coat.
