This primer worked very well to cover up some unsightly colors in our new home. The previous owners had painted different walls in almost every color that comes in a crayola crayon box and this primer covered it up in 2 solid coats to prep for a white paint overtop. Very pleased with the quality.

Would Recommend

Great Stuff

Would Recommend

Nice strong all-purpose bonding primer. I used it on a ceiling that the previous owner put figure 8's into. Primed, and then skim coated over it, sanded- the ceiling looks perfect now. Thanks Valspar!
