What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this primer for exceptional coverage of dark and bold colors, with most reporting one coat is sufficient for color transitions. Many highlight smooth application, low odor, and easy cleanup as major benefits. While most achieve excellent single-coat results, some find extremely dark or glossy surfaces require two coats. A few note the consistency feels thin, but these are exceptions. Overall, reviewers strongly recommend the product for its reliable performance and user-friendly application.

Easy to use with brush and roller

Would Recommend

I bought this primer it covered dark blue paint nicely and dried fast. Easy clean up as well. It's adheres perfectly to a lightly sanded wall. It sands easy and covered well.

Not as good as what they carried not long ago

Would Not Recommend

Took a whole gallon to paint one bedroom wall. Tried to find the primer sealer I had bought and used before but as usual they don’t carry it and I guess has been replaced with this one. The other that I had bought covered better and went further in its coverage.
