About this deal

Whether you’re painting the living room or a patio table, applying a prep coat of primer to the surface can improve adherence, prevent peeling, and reduce the number of coats needed to finish the job. While all primers contain more resins and less pigment than paint, formulas vary from product to product. We tested some of the most popular options to find out which primer works best for different situations. Bare wood: Apply an oil-based or latex primer to wood that has never been stained or painted to help seal the porous surface. Keep in mind that oil-based primers tend to emit more VOCs (smelly pollutants) than do latex primers.

Meet the Tester Although it is available in a lower-VOC formula, it is not low VOC and the odor was strong. We recommend using a respirator or working in a well-ventilated area when using this primer. Overall, Kilz Original is a solid performer, and we highly recommend it for any ventilated interior primer application.

Kilz Original Primer has not changed its formula. To this day, this combination primer and sealer is regarded as the best solution for interior and exterior surfaces in terms of preventing stains and sealing out unpleasant odors from smoke, grease, and pet secretions. Why Painting Professionals Trust Kilz You want to use a paint with a different base than that of the primer. For example, use an oil-based primer with a latex paint to take advantage of the rot resistance of the oil primer and the lower VOCs and faster drying of the latex paint. Before you proceed with applying a primer, cover the doors or other objects with drop cloths and painter’s tape to protect them from splatters. Then, apply a thin coat of primer with a roller. A foam sponge roller cover will help you get a nice and smooth finish without an orange-peel effect. As we've already highlighted, applying tile primer is pretty straightforward. If you can paint, you can prime! Furthermore, most primers are coloured so it's easy to spot any unprimed areas.Roller – High quality 3/8-1/2" nap on smooth surfaces or 1/2-3/4" nap on semi-rough or porous surfaces. Rubberized or rubber-based undercoating is usually used for vehicle undercarriages and any other metal surface that has been damaged due to rust buildup. The main ingredient in rubberized undercoating is oil, which repels moisture and other road grime. Metal: Choose a rust-resistant oil-based primer on metals such as aluminum to avoid the formation of rust, which the water in latex primer can promote. Primer usually comes in white or gray. Use either color as is without tinting it or have the primer tinted to a hue that’s slightly lighter than the top coat. Tinting primer, which requires buying a primer labeled “tintable,” generally achieves a deeper, richer, and more uniform final color but is particularly recommended in the following situations: Mildew-resistant finish that is great for high humidity, moisture, and temperature rooms like kitchens, bathrooms, powder rooms, and laundry rooms

Use a small foam roller or paint brush to apply a thin coat of primer to your substrate. Take care not to over-apply primer, as this can increase drying times Water-based primer is best for walls and ceilings. Oil-based primer is primarily used for doors, windows, metal, woodwork, or over tough stains in well-ventilated areas. Q. Which is better: primer or paint with primer? Self-priming paints—also known as paint-and-primer combo products—let users prime and paint a surface in a single step. But these two-in-one products are only recommended if all of the following are true:
