Zinsser Cover Stain Primer 1Q

Start your paint job the right way with a quart of Zinsser Cover Stain primer, the oil-based stain-blocking primer and sealer that painters reach for when a surface is going to fight back. Water stains on a ceiling, smoke and nicotine on old plaster, bleeding knots in pine trim, marker on a kid's bedroom wall — Cover Stain is built to seal all of it so your topcoat goes on clean and stays clean.

This is Zinsser's oil-based formula, which is what gives it the sealing power and adhesion that water-based primers cannot always match on glossy or problem surfaces. It grips bare and previously painted wood, drywall, plaster, metal and masonry, and it sands smooth for a crisp finish on trim and doors. The quart size is the right amount for spot-priming stains and knots, prepping a single door or trim run, or sealing a patched ceiling before you roll the room.

Key features:

• Zinsser Cover Stain oil-based primer and sealer, one quart
• Blocks stubborn stains so they do not bleed through your topcoat
• Strong adhesion on glossy and previously painted surfaces
• Suitable for interior and exterior wood, drywall, plaster, metal and masonry
• Sands smooth for a clean finish on trim and doors
• Quart size is ideal for spot-priming and small projects
