                  Good stuff if you know what you're doing
                  This stuff is very thick and gets the job done. It can ONLY be sprayed to build up thick layers, don't try rolling it, it will not look right. You can spray two layers at a time without any bubbling or sagging. If you have a smaller spray rig, I would not recommend spraying it with a 0.019" orifice size, but instead a 0.017" and go slower; smaller machines will not be able to keep the pressure built up for a higher spray volume.

                    I painted with a roller didn’t notice a huge difference in the build effect of the primer. Maybe should have used a paint sprayer. I applied 4 coats after sanding a ceiling with fine orange peel. Was able to still see the even grooves in between.
