Good coverage
Would RecommendI had a stubborn bay window area that leaked some brown stains through regardless of how many layers of paint I applied to it. I used this primer once and the stains were gone.

Superior product

Original Formulation.
Would RecommendThis primer dries quickly, cleans up with mineral spirits, and sands well. It’s the original formulation, not the new Low VOC one, which is a crazy and terrible combination of drippy and sticky that you would think would be impossible to create.
