Is kill 2 a paint or primer
Hi Tony, thanks for reaching out. Our Kilz 2 is a primer, and it requires a separate topcoat, such as paint. Have a great day! -Christina
It is a water-based, latex primer paint.
Can it be tinted
Hi Deed, thank you for your question. Kilz 2 Primer can be tinted with up to 2 oz. of tint to help achieve the color of your topcoat in fewer coats. Have a great day! -Giovanna
Does it pluck water stains and the stains? The popcorn leaves.
Hi Paul, thank you for your question. It sounds like you're looking for a primer that will block water stains. Kilz 2 will seal in light stains; however for heavy stains I recommend using a stronger stainblocker such as Kilz Premium 3 Primer or Kilz Restoration Primer. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna
How long before this can be painted over?
Hi Diane, thank you for your question. You can topcoat with your paint of choice after the 1-hour recoat time. Have a great day! - Alex
Can this be used on masonite before painting? Apply directly or would the surface have to be scuffed?
Hello, thank you for your question. Yes, Kilz 2 Primer can be used on masonite. The surface should be sound, clean, dry, and scuff sanded if the finish has a gloss to promote adhesion. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna
Does this product encapsulate lead material in paint
Hi Hamdi, thank you for your question. As it turns out, our coatings do not help encapsulate lead. If you have further questions or concerns, please reach out to us directly; we are always happy to help! -Alex
Can you paint roof shingles with this ?
Hi Joe347, thanks for your question. We don't recommend using our Kilz 2 on a roof surface. Its best to find an alternative primer for your local hardware store. Enjoy the rest of your day. -Christina
