[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a quite extensive leak in my garage which left many stains in the ceiling. This primer did a good job covering all the stains and water damage in just one coat. It does have strong smell, however great coverage is more important than scent. Definitely recommend it to everyone.

What Spot?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok, so what I had was a water spot on the ceiling. I had already attempted to cover it with a couple of coats of name brand primer spray and, as you can see in the photo with it taped out, it was still visible. ProBlock QUICK DRY said it would block the toughest water stains and this one has been there for a couple of years before I moved in. I cracked it open and got to work. The smell is VERY STRONG. The product is thick, as you would expect ...

Works well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ProBlock Quick Dry Oil Based Primer paint is a good product. It's expensive but it works well too cover up tough stains and stuff on the walls that wouldn't be covered up with other primer paints. The smell isn't super bad either. It does also dry a lot faster than others as well. Cleanup is the same as with other paint products.

Adhesion
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s a reliable workhorse for stain-heavy interiors, especially if you’re okay with the classic oil-based cleanup (mineral spirits, anyone?). Highly recommend for anyone prepping for a uniform finish—saved me from multiple recoats! If you’re sensitive to fumes, though, consider a latex

Good paint primer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got to use this in finally repainting our house! Paint never smells the best but that's to be expected. It covered great for us and dried within a few hours without any issues.

Try it and see for yourself
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently worked with the ProBlock Quick‑Dry Oil‑Based Interior Primer (roughly 3.72 L / 126 fl oz) and overall it feels like a dependable pick—there are real strengths, but some trade‑offs to be aware of. On the plus side, its adhesion is impressive: on semi‑gloss trim, old oil paint, clean drywall and stained wood—it really grips without needing insane sanding, which saved me a lot of prep. It also does a good job sealing out water stains, g...

Smooth coat🎉
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pro block quick dry primer is by far the best for all of your paint needs. The coverage is amazing-Covering even the darkest of colors in one coat. Oil base paint, leaving a smoother finish than water based.

Awesome
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so impressed with this product. It is awesome. It has awesome coverage and only needs one coat. It adheres to anything and the drying time is very quick. It does have a strong odor but doesn't last very long. It's easy to clean up.

Worth the extra money it’s a great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has got to be some of the best primer I have ever used. To be oil based the cleanup and odor is not bad. It dries fairly quickly to be oil base and 1 gallon goes a long way. This made our project a breeze, and we love how it turned out.
