Questions & Answers

can i use this product in patio wood furniture?

Asked by: rustykiss
Yes, this product is suitable for all surfaces.

I want to paint the ikea kallax. Is it the right one to stop peeling off paint? And is it true I do not need to sand it ?

Asked by: SJ
That's correct, SJ. As long as the surface is cleaned properly with a degreaser such as ammonia and water (1 cup of ammonia to a gallon of water), you can apply the Rust-Oleum Zinsser CoverStain Oil-Based Primer directly on the surface without sanding. Keep in mind that the product does take about 7-10 days to cure properly so you will not achieve full hardness until the curing has been completed. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 1

Can I use this primer on rough sawn exterior birch siding.

Asked by: DIY
We like the way you think! Yes, Rust-Oleum Zinsser Cover Stain Oil-Based Primer is suitable for use on exterior wood surfaces, including siding. If excessive absorption occurs, and additional coat of primer may be needed. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

can I use this product to cover dark stain that has polyurethane on top and then paint my kitchen cabinets
Asked by: jjm
Thank you for reaching out! Our Zinsser Cover Stain Oil-Based Primer is an excellent choice for priming and sealing previously finished kitchen cabinets. The surface must be clean and dry prior to priming, however, sanding is not necessary, as Zinsser primers provide excellent adhesion over glossy surfaces without sanding. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 2

Cover Stain 1 qt. White Oil-Based Interior/Exterior Primer and Sealer is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 73.

I am using it to prime exterior house trim (white) after substantial scrapping. After all of the work of scraping, I am willing to deal with the hassle of oil based primer ( brush, spills, cleanup, etc.) for the benefit of assumed better adhesion prior to the latex finish coat.

I rinsed one brush in my beautiful stone sink and spent 45 minutes scrubbing to remove the residue. Totally my fault. I should never have done that with oil based primer!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice primer for spraying I used this for the first time on an old dresser redo. This sealed everything up nicely including the rough sides to the drawers. I had to sand afterward but the surface is sooooo silky smooth. I used 220 paper and sanded very lightly, just to knock off overspray. Exquisite! I can not wait to put paint on this. It should lay out nice and flat and beautiful! I used this outside with a gravity fed gun and air compressor, I could smell the fumes through my respirator (not NIHOSH, I would like to get one specifically for this). This primer sands wonderfully after a couple of hours to a nice powdery finish, no gumming up and it feels VERY hard and not tacky at all like a latex primer. Also, after first coat of primer I filled all dings and scratches with drywall compound sanded flat and coated a second time with this primer. Provided a very nice finish and is nice and hard, should be very durable. This will be a dresser in a little girls room so will take some abuse. On the downside, clean up is not as easy as water based primer but I think it is worth it.
