Outstanding Coverage

Would Recommend

Excellent coverage. I came to the store to purchase KILZ, but Lowes doesnt carry that product. I bought the Valspar Primer and was pleasantly surprised. It covered a 12 x 12 foot bedroom with 8 foot high walls and we applied two coats over the older dark blue paint. We had plenty of primer with a quarter gallon remaining. Very good product and will purchase again. At approximately $27/gallon, it saved us from buying (2) $90 cans of Benjamin Moore main coat paint.
