What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this primer for its exceptional mold-killing ability and durability. Most report it eliminates mold and prevents regrowth for months or years, even on outdoor wood in harsh conditions. Many highlight strong one-coat coverage, smooth application, and quick drying. Reviewers note it binds chalky surfaces and stops mold from bleeding through. A few mention it doesn't block non-mold stains, and some report needing two coats on heavily stained areas. A handful note high VOC content and higher pricing, though most consider it worth the investment for reliable, lasting mold prevention.

Used this in my bathroom in my 100 year old house to keep mold and mildew from coming in on the new bathroom drywall. I have used it over the years and it has covered, and dried great.
