Ratings & Reviews for Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 Interior Multi-purpose Water-based Wall and Ceiling Primer ( 1-quart )

Worth it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Here is what I discovered.. coverage, little goes a long way, absolutely improve the appearance with a fresh layer of this primer. PROS: Great stain blocker, great adhesion, good dry time, and good white base for painting. CONS: It has a strong smell, but it dissipated in about 20 to 30 minutes.

Great Coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Zinsser - Bulls Eye 1-2-3 has a very smooth consistency and great coverage. My husband and I are updating our daughter's old bathroom, now that she has moved out and we needed to find a primer that would cover the stencil accents that were on the wall. Zinsser - Bulls Eye 1-2-3 covered them completely, leaving a nice even surface for the finish paint.

ehhh

used on MDF-needed to do 3 coats to cover properly

Not good at all

Bought this to seal some old drywall I had stripped popcorn texture off, as it has a dew water stains. I first used a grywall primer but the couple of water stains bled through. SO, I figured this would seal those small water stains. Well, I was thourolly disappointed. Not only did it fail to block those water stains, but it turned to yellow where it covered the old drywall. The first coat of drywall primer didnt even yellow on the drywall. I also am very upset about the sheen. It looks like sat...

great coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband used this to prime a room to turn into his bait-making business. The coverage was fantastic. We used 2 coats to be certain we got the results we wanted. Turned out great. Really recommend this brand.

Great primer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used Zinzer Bullseye products for years because of their consistent high quality and the no-fail results you can sometimes get with cheaper brands.

Great primer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently received this primer in a promotional give-away. I used it to cover an old painting canvas so I could repaint something else on the canvas. The old painting was with very strongly pigmented colors and the primer covered it easily and effectively with only one coat! I was very impressed. It was easy to use and the spray came out nice and even. I will definitely buy this product again.

Excellent Primer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unbelievably high quality primer. I used this Primer on an old laminate type bookcase. 2 coats of primer and no issue with paint adhesion or bleed through. Dries pretty quick and low fumes. I will definitely be using this on my upcoming projects.

Great for all surfaces

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I ordered. This, I was expecting a spray can but what they sent me was 4 gallons of the bullseye 123. This was a nice surprise. I gave 2 cans to my daughter for her projects and I'm using the other for a primer in my rv before I paint.

This is the good stuff!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer is easy to work with. It provides great coverage of stains, colors or discolorations. It has little to no odor odor. Works great on ceilings, walls and trim work. Would absolutely recommend!

Incredible product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this Bulls Eye 1-2-3 primer to turn a black painted bathroom to a light white. Not only did this primer cover the black paint with ease, but it took far less coats to cover the black than the competition I have used in the past. This is absolutely the best primer I have ever used. Great coverage and goes on smooth.

Works great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used several different types of primer over the years and this is one of the best. It’s thicker than other primers so, unless I’m covering a super bright/dark color, one coat does the trick. It does smell very strongly so I would suggest making sure you have adequate ventilation. But it works and covers great!

Smooth Easy Coverage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received Rust-Oleum® Zinsser® Bulls Eye 1-2-3® Water-Base Primer in exchange for our opinion. This product is a wall primer and sealer that goes on smoothly and easily. It has a low odor and dries in an hour. It is usable on interior and exterior surfaces.

smooth and easy application!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bulls eye 123 goes on smooth and easy for an excellent primer coat. It dried quickly, within 30 minutes and covered multiple stains on the wall!! The new coat of paint adhered to the bulls eye primer for an excellent finish. I would highly recommend this product!!

Covers Red!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Years ago we thought a red accent wall was a good idea for our game room. Finally decided to paint over it and knew we needed to use a primer first. The paints that say “paint and primer in one” are fine for covering light colored walls but not red! We used a roller with deep pile since the wall is textured and Bulls Eye covered in one coat. Now covering the primer with a much calmer color, looks great.
