Would RecommendIn my opinion, for exterior pressure treated wood, an oil base primer is the best way to go vs. latex, or water based. Too bad NY state won't allow the sale of the product - was well worth the 2 hour drive (one way) to purchase two gallons and used every drop on an exterior PT fence that had aged one year. With a semi-gloss top coat, looks like something out of Better Homes and Gardens. Also, top coat latex with this oil base primer took less than a gallon, all done by hand with roller and brush...
