What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this primer for exceptional stain and odor blocking, sealing water damage, smoke residue, pet odors, and pine knot bleed with single coats. Reviewers consistently report superior adhesion to challenging surfaces including torn drywall, glossy finishes, and cabinets where other primers fail. Many highlight rapid drying enabling two coats in one day and reliable performance across diverse projects. A few mention strong alcohol odor requiring ventilation and thin consistency demanding careful application, but these minor concerns barely diminish the overwhelming endorsement of its effectiveness and reliability.
