A must have when painting!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed to repaint some of my doors in my home that had lots of wear and tear over the years. I've never really been a fan of oil based paint or primer in the past but after receiving this product, I decided what better time then to step in and do some DIY on my doors. I was amazed at how much coverage this type of product provided, leaving a smooth finish. Scent was surprisingly pleasant and not harsh, and drying time was not too bad. All in al...

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer works really well for blocking stains and giving a smooth base before painting. It dries quickly, adheres nicely, and makes the final coat look more even. It does have a strong smell, but that’s expected with oil-based primers. Cleanup is a little more work, but the results are worth. I cant tell about flaking yet.

Dries quickly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This problock quick dry oil based interior primer went on well. It definitely has an heavy odor. It did dry pretty quickly, but you definitely need to put a couple coats on if it’s a bright color.

Its fast-drying formula makes projects move quickly, allowing you to top-coat much sooner than with traditional oil primers.

Great primer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really great primer. It covers well and drys fast. The primer clings well to the top layer paint. It doesn't drip or lay weird. Its easy to mix and paint

Good coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This paint was very effective as a primer. It dried very quick so we could keep the project going almost as soon as we were done painting on the primer. Covered some very dark paint too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall pretty good. It was effective and doing the job texture was good coverage was pretty solid. The consistency was nice and smooth. There were no bumps or anything. It was able to glide on just perfectly fine with ease. Scent not too strong. Able to work with normal tools.

Prep & Prime is necessary

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never was a believer that primer was necessary however after using ProBlock primer my thoughts have changed. The depth and color is quite noticeable with the use of a primer. The quick dry really is quick. It dried unbelievably quickly. I want to prime everything now.

Dried way too fast.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used it on out bathroom sink cabinets but it dried was to quick for us and ended up clumping and think maybe it was user error but we did not like how it worked. It was easy to sand flat and it did have full coverage. The smell was not bad for being a primer.

So easy to use and works so well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Priming our walls had been a total must in our new home. So many darkly painted statement walls! So this ProBlock Quick Dry Interior Primer has been a godsend! It brushed/rolled on with ease! After just one coat we were amazed at the coverage, but did a second coat for good measure! It dried rather quickly and within just a few hours our ruby red walls were perfectly primed for a new coat of beige. The odor was relatively minimal and cleanup wa...

This is your permanent solution for any stains ot

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received 2 gallons of this paint. I have already used one and I couldn't be happier. There are a couple places in my home where I have tried a few different kinds of paint and primer to cover up old stains. They kept leaking through every time. This has completely blocked it out. You'd never know it was a problem area before. I couldn't be happier for that reason. It goes on smoothly and doesn't leaf any streaks from the brush or roller. It's...

Refreshed pantry shelving

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with my results. We refreshed pantry shelving and I am so very happy with my results. This was easy to roll out and it provided great coverage. We will apply the paint this weekend but for now, I am happy knowing the stains and damage are fully covered by the primer. The smell isn't the best, but for the coverage and quick dry time, it was worth it. Will definitely be using this primer again!

Fast-Drying Primer with Strong Coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the ProBlock Quick Dry Oil-Based Interior Primer for a small home project, and it performed really well. The coverage was even and strong, easily hiding dark marks and previous paint. It adhered tightly to the surface and created a solid base coat. After drying, the surface sanded smoothly without gumming up, which made the final coat go on beautifully. Overall, it’s effective, dries fast, and gives a clean, professional finish. A reliab...

Covers beautifully and completely in one coat

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer is excellent. Covered my cabinets completely and smoothly. The new paint went on beautifully with no patchiness or rough spots. The smell is pretty strong so I definitely recommend using in a well-ventilated room. Dried relatively quickly (I used it on a day with very low humidity). Would absolutely recommend

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to paint and provides great coverage. I used this on bare drywall and it covered up every imperfection. It dried quickly and it only needed one coat which is great when you don’t want to spend days painting.
