Great coverage!
Would RecommendI was skeptical because it was the cheapest PVA but it had great coverage, went on easy no streaking.
Great Thick Primer!
Would RecommendGreat primer! Super thick so coverage may not go as far as you want but it’s a really good primer. I used it on some new drywall and over some drywall repair. Coverage was great after two coats. With final latex paint over the top there was a smooth seamless coat. Previous primers I used have made patch work still visible. Not this primer, it was perfect.

Beyond product spec to create good surfaces
Would RecommendUsed this product on sheetrock and on wood trim. Its pretty thick and soaked into the shelf board door facings and 3/4 OSB closet shelving. We first filled the OSB shelf board and trim with joint compound and let that dry overnight. Added primer then lightly sanded before painting. The primer helped lock the joint compound in the wood and fill knots and pits. This primer obscures 18 gauge nail holes in door facings. The PVA worked great on the drywall.

Great Product
Would RecommendI recently purchased a primer from Lowe’s to prep some interior walls before painting, and overall I’m satisfied with the results. The primer went on smoothly and evenly, sealed the surface well, and made the topcoat of paint look more vibrant and true to color. It also helped hide minor imperfections and created a consistent base that reduced the number of paint coats I needed.
