bad quality
it sprays but only because it's super thin, I still had to put three coats of paint after I sprayed the primer, so it doesn't seal well

Great Product
Would RecommendGreat product and great price! It does one specific thing and does it well. Used this over new drywall with hand texture. Seals up great and provides a surface for a smooth even topcoat. If you are painting new drywall and texture this is the product you need!

JUNK!!!!!
Would Not RecommendThis stuff is junk! I applied as instructed, painted over it with very good quality Benjamin Moore paint in three coats.

Not for Anything Other Than New Drywall
Would Not RecommendIf your prep work and work conditions aren't perfect, this won't have good adhesion.
