What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this primer for exceptional stain coverage, quick drying, and reliable performance on small projects. Reviewers consistently highlight its ability to block water marks, smoke damage, pen marks, and dark wood tones in one or two coats. The spray format dries within 30 minutes, applies smoothly without brush marks, and works well on irregular surfaces like wicker and metal. Many use it repeatedly for touch-ups, ceiling repairs, and trim work. A few report nozzle clogging or inconsistent spray, though most consider these isolated issues. Overall, customers strongly recommend it for precision work and stain-blocking performance.

Covers Fast and Well

I haven’t used on a wall or the like yet but is a great high hiding primer. I’m usually following with rattle can paint which I apply after 24 hrs per the lable.

Not fun

Wouldn't spray even and constantly. It would bunch up at the Nozzle. I would have to spray two passes and wipe it off to keep it from dripping on what i was painting.
