    Q:What is the best primer for this paint if you use primer
    by|Feb 25, 2024
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Thank you for reaching out, Josh. While a primer is typically not needed with Rust-Oleum Zinsser Perma-White Mold and Mildew-Proof Interior Paint, one can be used if needing to block stains. For most stains, Rust-Oleum Zinsser B-I-N Shellac-Based Primer can be used. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Zinsser-1-gal-B-I-N-Shellac-Based-White-Interior-Primer-and-Sealer-320991/100398381 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

      Q:My Home Depot says they don't have color charts for tinting Zinsser Perma-White and can't get one. I've seen a color chart brochure on the Rustoleum web site. How can I get one? The colors as shown on a computer screen are not as good as on paper.

          This mildew proof paint works but it's NOT cheap....
          Much as I hate to admit it this Zinsser mildew proof paint is about as good as you will get especially for high humidity rooms such as bathrooms, showers, and basements. You do have to purchase huge amounts of this type paint and pricing is what I was overly concerned with but after using my completed bathroom (see all pictures for proof) you can clearly see that the paint has held up perfectly with neither blistering nor mold/mildew rearing it's ugly head. If you want a quality mildew proof paint this is the one to get!

          TERRIBLE! POOR ADHESION OVER EXISTING PAINT! FIND ANOTHER PRODUCT!
          I'm not a professional painter, and I'm not an endorser of any paint manufacturer, product or anything like that. I'm an average Joe that needs to paint a relatively small bathroom ceiling where I recently added LED ceiling lights and my wife now would like the ceiling color changed as well. I chose this paint since it says that it is great for mold/mildew areas such as bathrooms, and I wanted to use what appeared to be a great product for the job (I don't want to be doing this again anytime soon). To note, I don't have prior history of mold or mildew in this bathroom. The existing ceiling paint (Glidden satin, approx 3 years old) held up very well. I began by reading the instructions and the label says the paint can be applied over existing painted surfaces as long as it is cleaned and sound. This paint does not need primer. I cleaned the entire ceiling with a household cleaner to remove any grime, then I sanded it lightly using a piece of sandpaper over a drywall sanding block. I wiped the ceiling down using a damp cloth & water to take off the dust and came back to paint a couple days later. I began painting by cutting in the ceiling at the walls and noticed this paint was not adhering to the existing finish very well. The problem occurs when I overlap some strokes - the brush pulls away areas the first strokes just put down. I know I shouldn't "over tool" the paint when applying by brush, but this is ridiculous. I got very frustrated, so I decided to stop and read the instructions again, check the internet, and clean the ceiling once more. Well, it still occurred and I'm beyond my limits of dealing with it. I didn't get to use the roller yet, but I'm worried what condition the ceiling will be left in after those overlapping movements. I've never experienced such terrible performance, and I've used a lot of different brands over the years. In my opinion, this is a very tricky paint to use over a sound existing finish. I'll be getting another brand - something that I've used before and know works well.

          I had to paint some drywall repairs in the bathroom. This paint covered the existing paint and new drywall and covered completely. Even some marker marks were almost completely covered with one coat. Very impressed.

          The paint needs two coats to cover even after priming. This is especially important to do over dark areas. Also, one case of them were open and leaking when we checked them at home.

          I used it as a top coat after waterproofing basement walls. Applied two coats hopefully it will live up to its mold and mildew proof representation. Looks great
