                  This product thoroughly covered a wall that was taped and installed 35 years ago. I panted two walls in my garage and was very pleased with the coverage.

                  Excellent quality primer! Used it on my kitchen cabinets with my Vonforn sprayer and the adhesion was perfect. Fast-drying with great stain blocking. Highly recommend for a durable, clean finish.

                  I have used Glidden Gripper Primer for many years. I removed any loose coating, primed bare substrate areas and painted my window seal.
